Alberta is feeding the world - we produce a large part of the world's pulse supply. I'm excited to see more value-add F&B innovations in our region. My new venture, Field Notes, uses distilled field peas to create herbal liqueurs. https://t.co/3dWhuqf4Un

My first company scaled paid social for Uber, Dollar Shave Club, Clash of Clans, & other top B2C companies. One secret we learned early? The marketing sprint. I have an awesome @NotionHQ template to execute on priorities fast. RT + comment “Sprint” and I’ll DM you!

I raised $3.5M in seed funding for Kahani. After our first investor meeting, my investors said: “That was the best post-investment first meeting we’ve ever had.” My COO built an awesome Notion template which helped us crush it. Want it? RT + Reply “Gateway X” and I’ll DM.

Media isn’t dead. Especially not specialty or local media. It just needs new and creative thinking. I’m on the edge of my seat with this announcement.
We’re excited to announce that Good Future, @aratisharma & I’s family office, is the new majority owner of @BetaKit. We're partnering to fuel the growth of BetaKit's media platform for the future of Canadian tech.

Your time is limited, so do not waste it living someone else’s life. Do not let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. —Steve Jobs https://t.co/rSwl2nVlOz

The ultimate flex would be if @VancityReynolds buys and rebirths @VICE. I'd love to see that.

Pretty damn cool to see how we embrace big events in this city.

This @robmagca @globeandmail list makes me think: 1. I am ecstatic to see @aratisharma included—and hope to see more like her in the future! 2. More changemakers in the Prairies could be on this list—we tell our stories less loudly & effectively here. https://t.co/QxXSvJUBmn

These activists, executives, entrepreneurs and academics whose single-minded devotion to making the world a better place should be an inspiration to us all

I'm curious who the product manager for @QuickBooks mobile app is. The web experience is fantastic, but I'm finding some challenges with the mobile and would love to share productively, rather than just complaining into the ether. Anyone know? @CheryllYEG?

If you were worried about the future of AI in alberta with the closing of @DeepMind’s Edmonton office, don’t be. @AmiiThinks is $30M richer, and three of the top minds in the world aren’t going anywhere. 🙏🏽

Nice to see @ExploreEdmCo updating procurement policies when they’re finally able to. We have amazing craft producers in this city!

Craft brewers angling to sell their products at sports and entertainment venues in Edmonton are on the cusp of making in-roads on contracts once exclusive to commercial beer companies.

Uggh @atbfinancial I want to stick w/you, but why can't you keep up with basic banking features?? Had to get a new @Mastercard & am now stuck w/o one for 2 weeks bc you can't just push the new number to my @Apple Pay. In 2023, this seems like an unnecessary inconvenience
