I started a company named NeXT and another named Pixar, and I fell in love with an amazing woman who became my wife.

I was lucky to find what I loved to do early in life when Woz and I started Apple in my parents' garage at the age of 20.

I spent two years at Steve Jobs' side doing a biography, and then I followed Elon Musk for years to understand his journey and share that information.

I was 23 when I became a founder, transitioning from studying sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki to the tech industry, which felt unconventional for someone with my background.

I was always interested in startups and didn't like the idea of working for someone else; I wanted to create cool new inventions and make a lot of money.

I heard about Silicon Valley and was drawn to the environment where everyone was obsessed with building and technology.

After quitting my job at Amazon, I moved to San Francisco where I found a co-founder and began working on various startup ideas without being picky about the market.

After selling my first company to Groupon, I wanted to work on something that would inspire me and allow me to create new skills and knowledge. I never want to be 80 years old looking backwards and wondering what if I tried.

I moved to America, drawn by the exhilarating optimism of San Francisco and Silicon Valley, and I believe we are at the beginning of the greatest technological revolution of our lifetimes.
