2024 was a great year, 2025 is best
2024 was wild, when I:
- found out I was going to be a father
- ran a marathon
- watched my first Olympics in person
- handed over my COO role at the startup I co-founded, to be able to be a present father
- went to Chicago for the 1st time
- helped in the aforementioned startup's M&A process
Before that, during 2023, there was watching a rocket launch, seeing the great pyramids and navigating the Nile, a Series A when the market was as dry as it could've been.
Yet, 2025 is best. I became a father. My life, focus and drive were changed in ways that are, to this day, hard to be precise about it with words. And while the prospects for this year are for a very local, uneventful stretch of days and months, there's nothing I could think of as being better.
2025 is the best year.
