On Wednesdays, I cut my call calendar short so I can pick up my daughter after school and dodge through Seattle traffic to get her to her riding lesson. I’m not saying it’s easy to balance leading a growth-stage company and being there for my kids, but it has some distinct advantages. Thanks to Lucia Zelesco, Zelesco Consulting ! #20-

When open houses in Seattle Real Estate shut down at the beginning of the pandemic my Photography business knew that Virtual Tours were going to be very important.

There was a lot of consumer internet activity again…resurgence of things, but it was still mysterious, venture capital was still kind of closed, 1st time entrepreneurs had a lot of questions that were unanswered, and there was still some sort of hand waiving around all the financing stuff and so we took it on….”.
