My 3 dream dinner guests would be:
Hmm tough one...Oscar Wilde, Fran Lebowitz, and Jon Stewart would be fun. I wouldn't say a word, obviously.
If there were 25 hours in a day, I'd spend the extra hour:
An extra-long walk!
If I could compete in an event at the Olympics, it'd be:
4x400m relay, 2nd leg

What's the best professional advice you ever received?
"Find something that: 1. genuinely interests you, and 2. takes a long time to master. Then, go spend some time getting really good at it."
I like this advice because it pushes you to seek a job/career that intersects with your interests and general marketability. It's also process-oriented, rather than outcome-oriented; if you commit to the process, good things will follow (in time).
How do you like to run meetings?
I like when everyone...
- has the meeting agenda in advance
- has an opportunity to contribute topics + opine on others' ideas
- is respectful of time

Ergatta is changing the motivation that moves people. We are a team of bright, driven, and innovative thinkers on a mission to build a new consumer category: game-based home fitness. Our flagship product, the Ergatta Rower, provides a competitive and personalized full-body rowing workout through an engaging game-based interface. Our products are sustainably-made in New England from American cherrywood and designed to be on display. As fitness activity increasingly shifts into the home, we believe the big winners will be those who innovate around what is on the screen. Our content provides a new and uniquely addictive consumer experience, radically different from traditional instructor-led offerings. Ergatta recently closed a $30M Series A, led by Advanced Venture Partners and joined by Greycroft, Fifth Wall, Gaingels, and Hans Tung (GCV). Off the heels of that capital raise, we are expanding our game studio, breaking into new verticals, and continuing to challenge the way at-home fitness “should” look and feel. However, above all else, we are investing in our company’s most important asset: our people. We invite you to explore our Org chart to learn more about our team, our culture, and what makes us unique :) If you like what you read - please don't hesitate to reach out to our team!
