A personal update: I joined the Cursor team earlier this year. Excited to be working with this small but mighty (growing!) team on the best tool for building with AI. Cursor is a beloved product by so many and I’m thrilled to support such a special community.

Knowing how to send great cold emails is a superpower. My learnings over the years: .• 3-4 sentences max .• have a clear ask .• avoid vague requests like "pick your brain".• add something memorable .• keep it casual.• no signature.
