Investment and Banking). But the glimpse I had of it during my previous internships didn’t satisfied me and it was all before becoming the “bitcoin maniac” I am now. By the way, my mom thinks I am crazy. I think you meant, tough.

Indeed, I found Bitcoin to be a challenging and stimulating technology, which is pretty much what I was looking for to built on a thriving career. So, as Coinbase emerged as one of the leading companies amongst the Bitcoin sphere, it became obvious for me to take a shot at it. Should read "build". Also, are you still a student in graduate school or did you graduate?
