“Bob is a mentor and investor in my company Trala. He has been crucial in the growth of our company from 100s to 1,000s of customers, two rounds of financing, hiring, layoffs, personal crises, and all the stuff in between. As busy as he is, he makes the time not only to keep up consistent 1-on-1s, but to prepare for them and dedicate his best efforts to helping us. His advice from specific subject matter expertise has measurably improved our revenue. He introduced us to several critical people, not only within Duolingo but at his previous companies as well. At the same time, he knows how to be a good mentor and doesn’t ever tell us what to do—he mostly listens, and many times has simply told me to trust my gut. Once, Bob flew in to Chicago (with no luggage, not even a backpack), to spend a full day workshopping with our team. Bob is empathetic, honest, smart, and supportive. He sets the standard for impactful mentorship. Trala wouldn’t be the same without him.”
