Influences

  • Lorne Michaels

    Lorne Michaels

    Lorne has been a master of hiring funny, quality talent for almost 50 years. He’s launched so many successful careers from Tina Fey to Chris Rock to Jimmy Fallon. What impresses me most about Lorne is how many talented comedians continue to work with him after SNL and go on to create some of the best television and films we’ve seen.

  • Warren Buffett

    Warren Buffett

    Warren's not chasing quick wins; he’s crafting a legacy. Quick decisions? Sure, but they’re steeped in fairness and a deep respect for the talent he surrounds himself with. His annual letters make the maze of finance clear and approachable for everyone. Genius at work, repeated decade after decade.

Pricing

Here are some brands I admire:

  • Though I'm not a cook, I'm a huge fan of OXO's kitchen tools. I love how the brand reinvents everyday items and makes them more useful, universal and fun.

  • Fantastic abstract art, interfaces, docs and technology. Stripe rarely does any press. They’re probably too busy building the next amazing thing.

  • It's nice how the store employees seem genuinely content. The retro visual design is great too.
