One of the perks of starting a company is hiring people who are more skilled than you in various areas, which has greatly benefited Pinterest.

As Pinterest grew, we built a research team to understand users better, especially those from different countries or infrastructures.

I invested in Pinterest because I see it as a unique social network that appeals to users on a deeper emotional level, differentiating it from other platforms. Pinterest is the best social network for influencing buying behavior and decisions in e-commerce.

I didn't discover Pinterest; my team recognized its potential, and I was impressed by Ben Silbermann's calm and thoughtful approach as a founder.

I envision Pinterest as a catalog of ideas where users can publish and personalize their preferences, making it easier to act on those ideas.

While the core problem Pinterest addresses remains the same, our ambition has expanded significantly over time.

My stint at Pinterest wasn't successful; I bounced off the culture because I tried to behave like I did at Apple, which was very direct and intense.

When we released Pinterest, it didn't grow quickly at first, but we kept going because we thought it was a really cool product that we enjoyed using.

The few people that used Pinterest actually really loved it, so instead of immediately changing the product, I thought maybe I could just find more people like me.
