I may have left YC, but HN is still home, so long as Daniel lets me stay.
Are you interested in working in auto industry?
They made great intros, had lots of advice, and were incredibly helpful from start to finish. I remember a few times calling Aaron randomly to get his take on a meeting I had just had, and he was always there to help. Aaron was the only person I trusted... he was on my side and helped when he could, but was also brutally honest when necessary.
Thanks Aaron, and best of luck with whatever is next!
I'm always happy to help, whenever you need it.
And he’s one of those people that engenders so much respect that it makes you want to be better just because you don’t want to let him down. (Or maybe it’s because you don’t want to be on the wrong end of that “I’m not mad I’m just disappointed” look.)
I aspire to be the type of mentor someday that Aaron has been to us.
It certainly helps that our conversations have always been so interesting. Can’t wait for our next one.

Any more information on this?
Sharpest tool in the shed and always told you what you needed. When it was tough love, it was the best. He is the exact mentor we wanted.
YC won't be the same with out you, and all the best on your next path in life!
Nobody grokked India like you did. Which was tricky a few years ago at YC.
But most of all, thank you for just being an email away - that meant a lot.
