Mentors

One of the sweetest recognitions this life is that we are apart of a collective. Through a recognition that we have many blind-spots, weaknesses and cracks as humans, we can rise into our potential by surrounding ourselves with people that make us more whole.

Here are some of the people that make me more whole, and are excited to dream alongside!

Matt Mochary

Matt is first and foremost a tremendous human that loves laughter, intimacy and self-inquiry.

He also has written a book called the "Great CEO Within" and coached the likes of Sam Altman (Open AI), as well as the CEOs of Reddit, Coinbase, the list goes on.

He lives up the road and plays soccer with us regularly.

Rishabh Aggarwal

Rishabh actually interned for me many moons ago at GoGuardian! Since then we have become great friends. He is a tremendous designer and coder and creator of collaborative spaces..

Rishabh now works at OpenAI. In the past he has worked for Facebook (Meta) and attended UCLA. Go Bruins!

Rishabh loves Kauai and comes out as his schedule allows.

Lane is a leader that now helps other leaders. He created an organization that was voted the Glassdoor "Best Place to Work" as voted by his employees. That is pretty incredible.

He is also a wonderful, curious and caring human. A true elder that we can all look up to.

And he understands how to build tech companies. What a combo!

What is the role of a mentor at CoDream?

Mentors are people that we can call on to make sure we don't get too wildly far off track. They may come to various events. Or in the case of Matt, they may come to most of our soccer games. Our mentors also live very busy productive lives outside of CoDream, so don't get too grabby or we will scare them off.
