    .@AndrewYang seems to be one of the only candidates who truly understands you need to have a strong digital strategy and reach the younger generations. Traditional approaches and outlets alone won’t move the needle anymore. Shocker, it’s working.

    Guys, I have 2 great startup ideas, feel free to take: 1. A suitcase waiting for you in your hotel room when you arrive. Rent the Runway for vacation clothes. Never pack again. 2. Baby equipment rentals. Rent bassinet, jumper, activity center, then return when baby grows out

    If you want to accelerate your career, you need to join or start a startup. Best in your 20s when you can take risks. There isn’t really much risk when you have no career yet. Just upside, growth, adventure. Success can grow exponentially with it. More women need to do this too
