What do you enjoy most about being in your current role?
I think one of my superpowers is building great teams, and that's probably the most enjoyable part of my job. Tech is changing all the time.
I love being in tech because it's always pushing you forward. There's always new innovation going on, especially with AI and other advancements.
But for me, the best part is the people that I work with and helping grow other people's careers. I have people who have worked with me across four or five companies.
When someone is willing to follow you, leave their current company to join you at the next, you know that you're doing a good job as a manager and as a mentor. That's probably the thing I like most about my role.
