I grew up playing soccer and sitting at dinner with students and scientists from around the world...

...winning national competitions in math and getting drunk the next day on cheap vodka...

I sweated blood for a degree in math and physics that got me a minimum-wage job in the Israeli desert, and then effortlessly breezed my way through a top 20 MBA in the US that suddenly made me a middle class New Yorker.

...quit my job as a day-trader for a hedge fund...

Wow, just... wow. *salutes*

Welcome, Jacob!
