What do you enjoy most about being in the tech industry?
It's really the center of the world these days. One of the greatest things is that you're always working on and hearing about new technologies.
Being in Silicon Valley, you'll always hear about new startups that came up with innovative ideas. You had no idea they would work, and somehow they're able to make it work. It's very dynamic and very interesting.
For instance, our product lines have been used in AI/ML network infrastructure for years. But because they're starting to really focus on AI/ML, you'll see more of a push from Broadcom and other semiconductor manufacturers on specific AI/ML products.
It's very dynamic, and when there's a trend, you'll see a lot of people start pushing towards that trend. People are willing to help you understand specific technologies; everyone's always there to help you transition.
There are many industry professionals and podcasts that can help someone understand how technology works and how to implement it. There's a lot of collaboration and real innovation that occurs daily, and it's just great to be a part of it.
