Miscellaneous
Alberto Gireud is a Co-Founder and CTO at CrowdNoise, a tech startup company serving as a social guide to Austin’s live music scene. Alberto tells us what it takes to build a company from the ground up, what the early phases as CTO of a tech company look like, and gives genius advice on how to turn your passion into a feasible career. Takeaways from this conversation: When choosing between opportunities, identify the fleeting one and take a chance on an offer that you may never get again. If your passion doesn’t directly translate into a career, don’t abandon it, get creative and find a way to apply the skills you have to the topic you love. Seek calculated chaos – life is chaotic, but if you worry about things that are outside of your control you’ll miss the fun. Control what you can and let the rest go.
