I wouldn't go as far as to attribute my ENTIRE career to Bill Nye, but I definitely enjoyed watching his show as a kid which helped nurture my interest in science. He was one of the many science teachers I had that made the subject engaging.

I personally would not say that it encouraged my entire career, but I am grateful for your efforts to bring people into the scientific community, we should always be grateful to educators.

General corporate in NY looking to lateral into tech transactions at one of the EC/VC firms. I’ve heard that I may get a class cut if I make the move but I’m ok with that. My worry is that EC/VC firms are crazy busy work differently from general corp, I also won’t have control over my hours, and potentially worse based on how billing differs (block billing on a few clients vs having to work with 15 or more startups). Is the same true for tech trans or IP group?
