Frustrating: nothing worth complaining about.
Rewarding: building a useful product with a great team.
1. Constantly ask for customer feedback.

Full Bio:
My name is pronounced like Nancy. I enjoy doing adventurous/dangerous and unconventional things that my insurance company would probably like to know about. I always appreciate humor. I love sports, especially tennis, basketball, snowboarding, and chess. Because I grew up very poor, I believe that we build our own successes through hard work and maximizing the opportunities we are given. My family and friends are the most important thing in my life. Live so once is enough 🙂
