 So I want to share with you what I think is one of the most inspiring photos of this generation. On February the 6th, SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket blasted into space, eight minutes later its two rocket boosters controlled entirely by algorithms descended at exactly the same point. And I thought this was amazing and I thought, you know, it's actually a poignant moment because while it's unfortunately it's possible for one person in this world to do a lot of bad, it's also possible for one person to do a lot of good and that is a good reason to get out of bed in the morning. So I grew up in the British countryside, I taught myself programming at a young age and I dropped out of school when I was 17 and moved to London and I realized that startups and entrepreneurship were my passion. So I decided I was going to move to San Francisco. Got on a flight, checked into a hostel, completely broke, started interviewing at a bunch of tech companies and unfortunately it's actually really hard to move to the US especially without a degree and you wouldn't know that listening to Trump but it's actually really tough. So I had a job and I had no way of actually getting a visa so I moved back to England and looked at my wounds and thought again and so there's this visa in the US called the 01 visa and the technical term for this visa is alien of extraordinary ability and that's actually what the Americans call it and now the great thing about this visa is there is no educational requirements which is fantastic and although I was an alien unfortunately I had done little in terms of anything extraordinary. So I decided to set out and change that and I was going to write a book on programming so a year later I had a publisher, I had a book and I had my US visa so I moved back to the States and joined a tech company and then three years ago I started a company called Clearbit and essentially what we do is we're a data platform that the companies can use to better understand their own customers and we essentially build the building blocks that other companies can use to build upon and we have about 30 employees now, we're profitable and we're growing and one of the things I'm most excited about is our work-life balance so about half of our company have families and about half of them work from home and we actually have one engineer who prior to joining Clearbit he never got to see his daughters, he had a two-hour commute to London every day and now he works from home, sees his girls every day and takes as much vacation as he needs and so my love affair with this country started when I was in my 20s I came around backpacking and hitchhiking around the country and I realized I wanted to move here but not just move here, I wanted to contribute back, contribute back in the way that I knew best which was creating jobs and so I wanted to come here, create tech jobs, high Kiwis and contribute back but good intentions are not enough you know we tried that before and we got possums and so that's the one thing I love about the EHF is there's you know that not only do they introduce you to this cohort family and you know local connections but they also introduce you to a Kiwi way of thinking you know they introduce you to local nuances to Maori culture and that's all really really important if you're going to make the right kind of change so thank you very much
