It's interesting to see how this might be the opposite experience of many founders. Some founder/technical CEOs wish they could just hunker down and code half or all of the time and are too afraid to go out and do the marketing, writing, and customer service thing at full steam. Seems like Danielle was in that position in Twilio and has dialed back to what makes sense for her current position.
- dmor 14y agoThat is so true. I even remarked to my cofounder/husband recently that I finally understand why developers/founders I know tend to want to go into their code caves and just build, even to the extent of getting disconnected from customers. I've never been able to truly relate to that before, so it was pretty cool and made me feel closer to several friends. The pendulum has swung, as some might say.
