I find it best to dive right in and learn the hard way.

The more people you know from different backgrounds, the more tolerant you feel of different ways of living, and the closer you feel to the issues that those people have.

Creating the future is incredibly exciting. When you talk about ideas and creativity, it's really about having that vision in your mind of how the world could be better, of how it could be a brighter place.

You just want to be judged against everyone fairly.

We are all more connected than ever. That connectivity builds tolerance.

You need space to try things and create. It takes a long time to recalibrate if you let people pull at you all the time. A lot of stress comes from reacting to stuff. You have to keep a certain guard [up], if you're a creative person.

That's really been my passion: to communicate to a broad audience why the technology matters for you.
