Hi tech twitter.
I'm Nikos. I know this is a lot of text so feel free to just scroll past this.
I'll probably just take this down later as I don't like sharing personal stuff too much.
> at 13, 14, and 16 years old, I worked at my towns local ice cream store, and did horrible in school. Spent a lot of time fixing my english since I came from living in greece and then went directly into a French immersion school.
> at 17 owned and operated one of the largest Ark Survival tribes w over 300 active members. I was super addicted to Ark. I somehow magically got into my local university after all the other ones I applied to rejected me. I never (I know everyone says this but like actually never) did any homework so all my grades came from me asking my friends for notes the hour before tests and somehow passing by on those grades. I also tried starting a drop shipping store but never launched. I tried trading stocks and put all my high school savings in, made some decent returns some how but had 0 idea what I was doing.
> at 18 I graduated high school, and did some crypto stuff with a friend, we had a falling out and I remember he told me that I would never make it in life if I didn't work with him on this (lol). I begun university and in the summer something clicked, I was fed up with the way I was living decided to do something productive with my time. I got into the gym and started reading. I also worked as an AE for a friends company, which lead to him wanting to cofound, he would put up a few 100k in initial investment to have me run a crypto mining farm, I ended up not going forward with it.
> at 19 I did GTM for my then gf now fiancee's wedding videography company, going from 3k in yearly revenue to ~100k in a year. I also founded a growth agency, cold calling my way to 8k/mo with no clue what I was doing, learning totally from youtube while living in rural Virgil, Ontario. I had clients in both the US and Canada and this was my first time getting exposed to running a business in whole.
> at 20 bootstrapped a startup in the conversational intelligence space (think fathom on steroids for sales and cs teams), got into a bunch of accelerators. some really cool mentors, and really started to fall in love with learning, reading over 50 non-fiction books in that year.
> at 21 we secured pilots and clients quickly over the span of 6 months, including a fortune 200! I also went to work my first summer internship at a robotics company building prefab housing components w @err_53
> at 22 we got acquired, after 4 months of back and fourth, by our largest whitelabeled customer after they raised a new round, I went to work there as VP Tech leading the eng org. Moved from small town Virgil to big city Toronto, 2 hours away, and also graduated university w first class honors.
> at 23 was given the product org too, and we scaled to one of the largest players in AI Voice agents for the Canadian automotive niche. Also got engaged to @sarahfim!
> Also at 23, left to start my own company again and moved to SF, met the wonderful people @composio, and now am an MTS heading up special projects!
> at 24 ...
