Personal / Behrad

I didn’t take the straight road.

People have met me in different places—a classroom, an event, a collaboration, or one long conversation. The route was never straight. One thing stayed constant: everything takes shape between people.

02 / WHAT I BELIEVE
Everything takes shape
between people.

Small businesses can grow into something substantial. Large businesses can fall. The same is true of ideas, opportunities, and paths: none of them has a fixed destiny. People give them shape, help them grow, bring them to a halt, or build them again.
