I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii

I like ... what I characterize as more built-to-last ideas rather than built-to-flip ideas.

I do think that people have an obligation to give back but that doesn't necessarily mean that you give back just the traditional way. Maybe there's new ways to give back and make a contribution. I'm looking forward to some mix of philanthropy - maybe through a somewhat different prism - as well as helping entrepreneurs build some significant new businesses.

So we believed that strategic alliances and partnerships were critical, and we did that for five years.

My father and his brothers were all lawyers, so I think that the expectation was probably for me to grow up to be an attorney, but it never really fascinated me that much. I was more interested in building things.

I had an older brother who passed away recently, an older sister and a younger brother.

In the end, a vision without the ability to execute it is probably a hallucination.
