I'm thankful she took a chance on me then, and I'm grateful every day we get to work together on whatever new crazy idea or ambitious goal she has.

This was when I was still managing bands and "creator managers" weren't really a thing. We didn't know what managing someone who made videos meant, but I knew we could build a really compelling business together.

Ten years ago, I sent her a DM that read exactly like this: "Hey Simone, do you currently have management? If not, can I get your email? LOVE your youtube channel".

I've had the privilege of working with Simone since the beginning of her journey. Being her manager has felt less like steering and more like being a passenger alongside genuine genius. Her instincts are unparalleled and her creativity inspires me every meeting.

Amazing! I can’t seem to DM you though?

Hey, you work at Amazon?

You’re the exception I think! Most people turn their brains off, you must actively watch and learn.

I know google maps means it takes me a lot longer to learn new roads/areas. I don’t absorb.

Both are a problem.

😂

Haha looks so cool

Probably smart but I want new toys lol
