My First Job Was
I worked at McDonald’s as a “bun caramelizer” when I was 14. I spent three months there before I “graduated” to fries and later burger assembly. It was almost 6 months before they let me anywhere near a cash register.

Best Advice I’ve Received
Good judgment comes from experience, but experience comes from bad judgement. If you think long, you think wrong. Better to do something imperfectly than to do nothing perfectly.

Valuable Lessons I’ve Learned
That no matter who you are or what you’ve done, everything up until now could just be the prologue to your greatest success.
