Avi. That's okay.

Avi. Sorry, Avi. Thank you so much for being here. I'm I'm I'm excited to have you.

Thank you very much, and that was a very warm warm welcome. I appreciate it.

You're very welcome. I I you're a fellow Canadian, so I I felt like I needed to up the ante just slightly compared to that that I have. Ovi, we're gonna jump straight into it because I wanna know what made you decide to jump into the world of entrepreneurialism?

Yeah. It wasn't really a, direct it's not like I woke up one morning and I just decided, you know, today, this is the day. I'm just gonna start my business. I think it all kinda starts with the fact that I have I've always had a hyperactive mind. And so I always tinker with stuff. Ever since I was a kid, I just always tinker with stuff. Right? Like, while I'm playing video games, I would sit there and, you know, like, watch the neighbor do the, you know, mow mow their lawn and figure out, like, hey. I I could save him the time and whatever.

So it is just there's always ideas. And usually when I get an idea, I just I I feel the need to to scratch that itch and to just explore it. Right? So, really, even in high school and even, throughout school and and while I had a corporate career, in the evenings, I always tinkered with something. Right? So, in university, I went to the University of Waterloo. And even then, I you know, we at the time, we were my my roommates and I, we were, running. We were doing parties and and things like that just to kind of, bring the world together. And it was just something that kinda took our minds off of school. And, eventually, we actually kinda made it a bit of a side hustle as well because we figured, well, now we know everyone.

We're we're the guys that people come to for a guy, basically. Right? So we we figured out that we could actually pay some bills that way. And, you know, it was fantastic. It was one of the most fun side hustles I've ever had. Right? And once I got into my corporate world job, my big boy job, that's when I kinda started playing and tinkering around with tech projects. And, you know, I kinda learned how to do some front end development. I got into, you know, obviously into AI for a while. And these things, you know, a lot of the times, I wasn't really looking to make a quick buck.
