Like Kellco I'm a female co-founder with no tech experience. Growing up I was encouraged to be creative and expressive. It wasn't until college that I was drawn in to the sciences and ultimately entered a male dominated field (as an adjunct professor in a lab oriented discipline). It works for me because I'm a people person but I love the creative impact of the scientific method, its structure, and how it opens the mind. When I began teaching myself to code and program for our company, I realized it isn't much different and I'm quickly growing to love the process. It's still a science after all. I think the hacker stereotype of the nerdy guy with no social skills needs to go the way of the dodo. :) |

" It works for me because I'm a people person " == that is around 99% of the start-up game. 1% is randomness or grace depending one one's perspective.
And most nerds who scaled up companies and became public faces as founders acquired serious social skills.. so nod again.
All the best !
p.s. I really hope that both Kellco and you get in. That would be awesome.
