In 2015 @ridezum launched @angelpad with a simple vision: Better transportation for Kids age 5-15. Back then it was a luxury service for private schools.

It's a unique time and we all have to make tough calls to help the greater good. To all the founders and "soon-to be" founders: Use this time to reflect and adjust, many of the strongest companies have been conceived or launched in difficult times.

@Bandrew Do not worry! At my interview, I sat down & waited for the officer to finish some paperwork; he looked up and said “is your client late?” - I responded “I am here for my interview” - he loughed “ahh, this will be short, you are the first person today who actually speaks English”

My son (13) asked me what makes a good Founder. My response: Curiosity - /ˌkyo͝orēˈäsədē/ the strong desire to know or learn something. Ingenuity - /ˌinjəˈn(y)o͞oədē/ the quality of being clever, original & inventive. Tenacity - /təˈnasədē/ the quality of being very determined.
