“Don’t share anything publicly that’s not providing value for other people. It’s going to be tempting to show off or to be mean online. Don’t do it. Value your privacy in this increasingly non private world. taken from here: http://www.nathanlustig.com/2015/08/30/advice-to-my-20-year-old-self/”

What do you do?

I help founders originally based in Latin American build startups and help them connect to clients, partners and investors in the US and Europe.

Why?

I had so many people who helped me on with my first startups and now I get to give back. Helping guide new startup founders along the path of creating something from nothing is incredibly fun and is especially rewarding in Latin America where the startup ecosystem is just starting to be built.
