“Sasha is someone who seems like they were designed in a lab if you read his resume or meet him for the first time. While his achievements and accomplishments are other worldly, I feel that his ability to lead with humility and genuinely care about his people all while steering a VC backed company through the ups and downs of growth is what I respect him the most for. I know him and AP are going to take L2W to unfathomable heights, and I am forever grateful they gave me the opportunity to be a small part of the journey ”
