Today is my last day at 8090 Industries. I’m deeply grateful for my time at the firm and for my colleagues in our shared pursuit of backing the next generation of industrialists. Thank you to @RayyanIslam1 for taking a chance on me three and a half years ago and bringing me onto the team. I’m proud of what we built and excited for the bright future ahead at 8090 as they support reindustrialization and abundance. Being around generation-defining founders challenged something in me and inspired me to take this next step of the journey — to chase a singular mission that the world urgently needs and pursue it with furious attention. I’m indebted to my founder friends for modeling that conviction. Their example amplified what God was already stirring in my heart: the call to build. As I step into the next chapter, I’m reminded of the opening scene of Homer’s Odyssey where Odysseus leaves the comfort of Calypso’s island to cross uncertain seas towards his homeland where he belongs. The journey would be painful but necessary. He knew the odds, and he still goes. Now is the time to pursue my mission. Recent current events show this to be true, the world will not wait for the United States to be prepared for the next generation of armed conflict. We will need to democratize the exquisite for high volume production, fielding many while still fielding technological-masterpieces. I’m excited to share more later this year. For now — time to build.
