Be Ambitious and Humble

Steve Vassallo, Foundation Capital

Foundation Capital’s Steve Vassallo, author of “The Way to Design,” advises those launching into their career to be patient and avoid feeling entitled. The designer-turned-venture capitalist repeats a phrase his father used to say, “take out the garbage,” as a reminder to be humble and do even menial work to the best of your ability.
