Amy’s Advice

You can do it is my biggest advice. I just think entrepreneurship is so special. I think it's the heart of capitalism. I think it is the best way to have equity.

If you want to see change in the world, if you actually want to see resources going to different places. If you want to take the resources out of the hands of the few and distribute them to the masses. 

If you want to see women design stuff, like do different things and step out of just a domestic role into a different space. Then create a space that really is equitable for different kinds of people, different races, different ages. There needs to be entrepreneurs of those different races and ages, creating things for these populations.

I think, if you have an idea, if you want to pursue it. It will make the world a better place. It's hard, it's harder if you're not maybe the traditional white rich, successful male. But I think things are shifting and the more that you're willing to pioneer some of these changes, I think the world will be a better place.
