Sammy said he's "the dumbest in his friend group."
Spent hours co-working with him at New Systems studio. He's one of the smartest and most ambitious people I've met.
At 20:
- Google Hackathon winner
- Spoke at conferences in SF, Vancouver, and Dubai
- Y Combinator AI School x2
- Led AI solutions on a $3B nuclear power project in Romania
- Turned down multiple six-figure offers
Sitting beside him, I saw what ACTUALLY goes into it. Constantly on calls, moving things fast, my phone blowing up with his Discord messages.
Sammy's grinding... but what sets him apart is:
He's having fun.
As Head of Growth at Polarity, he goes above and beyond for the community. Hosting a patio dinner, Jays game, hackathon, yacht party.
Nobody can outwork someone having fun.
Grateful to be surrounded by people who rewire my brain and challenge me every day.
If you made it this far, go co-work with someone, bounce ideas, and get to know them beyond the surface. You'll learn more in a few hours than months of scrolling <3
