lost in thought
with Thomas Thurston

Managing Director, WR Hambrecht Ventures

I'm inspired by people who focus on their contribution, not their status.

To me, brilliant is when ideas make us smile.

When I'm having a creative block I start complaining, then try to hear what I'm complaining about.

My favorite color is whatever my wife is wearing.

The very next thing on my to-do list is to start procrastinating less, soon.

I think the Kardashians are good at marketing.

At least once, everyone should ask themselves for permission.

The best way to unwind after a long day involves a couch, a movie, ice cream and family.

At FUSE 2016, I can't wait to notice when experts disagree. That's where the gems are buried.

The biggest thing that has changed since I started in the industry is the mainstream boom of data science. The inflection point was only around four years ago.
