SF I am in you

For my non-Canadian followers: Yves Engler, a left-wing author/journalist/activist in Montreal, went to jail for five days as a result of criticizing some of this person’s views on Twitter.

You’re a disgusting bigot, and ironically, a migrant to the US who should be deported yourself for fuelling racial hatred. It’s shameful that the Republican Party is letting you represent it in the 31st Congressional District in Tx. I hope @realDonaldTrump stops you.

Mfs complaining about 67 but just four years ago I’d walk into the student center bathroom and see a urinal ripped out of the wall

Exactly two years ago, the University of Ottawa suspended me from my medical residency training in public health because of social media posts in support of Palestinian human rights. They framed my social media posts as “unprofessional”. The irony being that I studied the impacts

all it takes is ONE video. while running marketing at my startup, my goal was simple — get views after a bunch of planning, filming, and editing, we finally dropped our first video and that video hit 3M views (too easy lol) that momentum put our brand in front of millions,

We did it. We built Cursor for Google Docs. Introducing TypeOS.

whichever TA marked my midterm needs to take a long hard look at themselves in the mirror

Growing up in Silicon Valley, I believed tech was meant to democratize opportunity and accelerate human progress. The early ethos of the Valley wasn’t just about building profitable products, but about shifting the trajectory of lives and societies. There was idealism, for sure,

I also grew up trying to get rich as young as possible, but I've realized I want my life to be a constant learning journey, and while I'm confident money will come with that, I'm most focused on just developing myself as a person and trying to get exposure.

I may not know where exactly my career's headed, but I think I've come out of this trip knowing that I want to do something strategy-adjacent, whether that be corp. strategy or marketing.

Took a trip to the @getlindy office and got some good ass mexican food with @SathTweet. Probably one of the most profound conversations I've had, and I realized that while I had been tryna choose between tech/banking, what I enjoyed most was strategy

Visited @instinct_inc and met @benaratame and @driselamri, really funny guys and they had a sick office

Linked up with @coderpr0grammer and @aql404 to get boba and they showed us around SF and the YC area. Was super crazy to see how guys from my high school were doing sm crazy stuff and making names for themselves in the tech world, super bullish on them & @Type_OS

Met @tobinwtang and had some Yemeni food with the team. Super deep talks and definitely a really insightful guy. Made me realize that there were a lot of roles/careers available in startups other than just SWE. Got ice cream with him and @jjeremyro after🙏

Landed back in YYZ last night after getting flown out to SF for my startup and slept for 16 hours straight. When I reached SF, I was unsure whether I wanted to work in startups or build a future in banking/finance. Here’s what I did/learned during my week there (a thread 🧵)
