Boris questionnaire: 1. How did you meet Boris? I had already gone through an interview to be an intern with his director of operations, at the time, and then I was brought in for my final “review” by the CEO … Boris. He showed up a few minutes late wearing a black leather pants and a shirt with a multicolor pattern. He asked me what degrees I had and then abruptly, what I thought about online tools and iOS apps and did I know how to create a go-to-market strategy… my heart raced and I answered to the best of my ability … he sat back in his chair and said, “ok”. I started the next day and that’s how I first met, Boris :)
2. What was the first thing that kept your attention from him?
The very first thing was how he dressed, but then about two minutes in to my first proper conversation with him it was the fact that he was clearly incredibly smart and I knew he saw the future of how tech would be used in the art world. 3. What's the craziest you saw him do?
Haggle with a female taxi driver in the middle of nowhere outside Mexico City, over a price that was the equivalent t of a few American quarters, lol.
4. How did you think he would look in his 50s?
The same as ever, the man doesn’t age!
5. Any memory related to "otters"?
My first big assignment from him after being hired was to go to his friends house and pick up a very special and important package that had arrived there for him. I was extremely careful with this package and when I got back to the office, he asked me to open it with care to make sure the contents were correctly shipped … I opened it up and discovered the first stuffed otter of many that would hang out in our office. I swear he wanted to see my total shock when this super important package turned out to be a stuffed otter, and of course he proceeded to tell me the story behind how otters stopped us from being governed by the Russians :)! 6. Three words you would use to define him... Individual, intelligent, loyal 7. What are Boris' most unique qualities?
There’s nothing about Boris that isn’t unique.
He’s a visionary and an incredible critical thinker. 8. What would Boris be, if he was... one food/ one country/ one song
Can’t pick just one! He’s a tasting menu/ Japan/ Bad Romance by Lady Gaga for sure! ;) 9. What's your last memory with Boris?Catching up over zoom, talking about politics, life, and gushing over our kids :).
