About Abe
I'm addicted to startups. 0 --> 1 Product and Engineering. I have recruited and built engineering orgs in the USA and India and coached ICs and managers in the process. I have started my own company and been acquired. Currently building my next startup + advising / coaching.
Why do I coach?
I'm a huge advocate of learning as much as you can from free resources online. You can get VERY far doing this. What is also true is that pointed advice from someone who a) understands your situation and b) has been there before is often the crucial catalyst of the biggest and best outcomes. Why coach? Maybe I can be that catalyst for someone. And, in the process make a new friend that I can cheer on to success.
