“I had a really hard time finding great people to help me … They have been absolutely amazing … They’re just so willing to try new things, to experiment, they’re problem solvers, they’re creative too. I would say indispensable is the word I would use for them. Once I found them, honestly that cleared a lot of roadblocks for me, that was such a huge relief off of my back. Having the right teammates to work with through your project is absolutely essential.”
