As I wrap up my first few weeks here, I’ve had a chance to pause, reflect, and learn not just about the company, the product, or even the market but about myself.

Coming into any new environment as a old pair of hands with experience is a test. A test of clarity, of confidence, and most of all, of authenticity. One truth has hit me harder than any onboarding doc or sales deck could (whether we had any or not!): you don’t sell a product you sell belief. Belief in yourself. Belief in the journey. Belief in what we’re building.

People don’t buy features. They buy conviction. They buy the energy in your voice when you talk about the future. “If people like you, they’ll listen to you, but if they trust you, they’ll do business with you.” And trust only comes from being genuine; genuinely excited, genuinely knowledgeable, and genuinely human.

In these 2.5 weeks, I’ve also been reminded that thinking big isn’t a luxury it’s a requirement. If we’re going to change the game, we have to dream bold. But dreams without execution are just noise. We need to walk those big visions back to the ground step by step, with plans, processes, and precision. “Plan your work and work your plan.

So here’s my promise to you: I’ll show up every day with confidence in who we are and clarity in where we’re going. I’ll bring the good, the bad, and the ugly, but always the genuine. Because the only reputation worth having is one that’s real.

Let’s think big. Let’s move with purpose. And let’s make people feel what we already know: this is something worth believing in.
