A8. My advice: stop being so hard on yourself. Don't be ashamed of your mistakes or what you don't know. Learn from them. Also, many entrepreneurs go through a "broke phase" that no one talks about lol it's not just you. And remember who you are doing this for!

A7. @Quirktastic_co has recently launched a beta of our friendship app in both iOS and Android! It's like a Bumble BFF for nerds haha (quirktastic.co) . And we are selling tickets for QuirkCon our lineup for this event is awesome! QuirkCon.com#DIDTechTalk
A6. It was probably one of my most rewarding experiences. Being able to give advice to women going through a process that I just went through, while also knowing that these women are LITERALLY the new faces of tech, alongside myself. Amaaaaazing! #DIDTechTalk
A4 If you are a Black or Latinx woman in tech, you've probably been in rooms where no one looks like you. BIG is different. You're in a room of women who know what you are going through. Like this article from @Britt_S_Ofastcompany.com/90296371/theβ¦
we know this struggle #DIDTechTalk
Haha definitely! Some examples include: learning how to properly do customer discovery, building and testing an MVP, learning about unit economics and how to track results, and the different types of investment. Like before, I had no idea what a seed round was lol #DIDTechTalk

A3b Hm, I think before BIG there was a certain level of confidence that I lacked when it came to talking about my company. It would take me forever to describe what I was building and BIG definitely helped me define it, which in turn made me feel a lot more confident #DIDTechTalk
A3a: Well coming from a science background, BIG really taught me the foundation of entrepreneurship. It felt like the "cheat code" that I was looking for when it came to the world of investment and startups...
Haha, cheat code...such a nerd lol #DIDTechTalk
A2. (continued) Two: the concept of networking. Not really a myth, but I think it is misunderstood. Instead of trying to pick someone's brain thinking that they have the "golden ticket", I wish more people worked on building mutual relationships. It's so much better #DIDTechTalk
A1. Hi everyone! I'm an scientist turned entrepreneur, so @Quirktastic_co started as a hobbie that gained a big following (100K )
So then, I learned more about my audience and realized that I wanted to create a space for us: nerdy, anime-loving, weirdos of color :) #DIDTechTalk
