Andrew Grove escaped Hungary at 20, arrived in New York nearly deaf and barely speaking English, and ended up running Intel. He bet the entire company on a new business while the old one was still profitable, because he could see it dying. ⁠

The more I build, the more I realize how much I love helping other people build too.

Entrepreneurship completely changed my life.

It gave me freedom, purpose, relationships, experiences, and opportunities I never could have imagined when I first started.

And after more than a decade of building companies, brands, and teams, one of the most fulfilling parts of the journey has become pouring what I’ve learned back into other entrepreneurs.

I know what it feels like to have a vision other people don’t understand yet. To bet on yourself before there’s any proof it’s going to work. To take risks, make mistakes, figure things out, and keep pushing forward anyway.

I also know how much the right person, relationship, or opportunity at the right time can completely change someone’s trajectory.

That’s why the Aspiring Entrepreneur Foundation and the Hall of Giants mean so much to me.

There are incredibly talented entrepreneurs out there who sometimes just need access. Knowledge. Resources. Relationships. Or somebody willing to open the right door.

I want to keep building everything I know I’m capable of building, while making sure the opportunities that come with that journey reach further than just me.

Entrepreneurship changed my life.

Being able to help it change someone else’s might be one of the most meaningful parts of the entire journey.

Entrepreneurship is alive and thriving in every American community. It has a living history – but too much of that history lives only in people’s memories. That makes it immensely fragile. Hall of Giants is being created to preserve these stories.

Ida Rosenthal was a dressmaker who kept adding bras to her dresses because she thought body-flattening fashion was nonsense. Customers wanted the bras. So she founded Maidenform in 1922 and changed fashion forever. #womenentrepreneurship by @hallofgiants

Ambition can build or destroy. Free enterprise gives it somewhere productive to go.
