Amongst the swarm of people on the rush hour ttc where I was a sardine, i met a stranger on the subway, we were trying to solve the @Casper puzzles on the #ttc. And at the end he said “see ya”- even though I’ll never see him again. It was still a pleasant rush hour ttc ride :).

What do you do when after a few months (hehe yes), you finally muster the courage to tell your boss she’s pronouncing your name wrong- but then there’s a long weekend and it’s back to the wrong way? HELP PLS in a conundrum.

There’s a time travel tool on Merriam-Webster dictionary that tells you all words added to the dictionary in any year. Bootylicious made it in 1994- a little late don’t you think? Lol.

Is impact investing just a marketing game? It seems as though saying you’re an impact investor brings about so much skepticism, but frame that as “I’m a clean tech investor” and all of a sudden it’s here’s my money? What are your thoughts? #mythbusting #impactinvesting.

Impact investing is no longer an “oh that’s cute” thing to be part of - it is a reality, you can do well by doing good. WITHOUT compromising financial returns. Take note people. @SOCAPmarkets #impactinvesting.

Tech development in the west is so focused on that transition from legacy, and how that affects adoption of new solutions. Turns out having no legacy systems at all, and being a lagger can be a bonus! (2/2).

Let’s talk about Africa for a sec - Tech in Africa is broadening it’s reach so rapidly because there are no legacy systems that present barriers to leapfrogging right into new innovations. (1/2) #africarising.
