How to Take the Startup Leap, with Richie Serna of Finix
After starting his career as a management consultant, Richie Serna left it all behind to move to San Francisco and learn to code. After sharpening his engineering skills at a startup, Richie took the leap to build one of his own: Finix, a payments infrastructure platform that has raised over $55M to bring payments technology to a wide range of customers. Richie shares how being an engineer helped him build a better product, why fundraising is a combination of running a clear process and lots of pitch practice, and why he's a creature of habit (eating the same meals every day to drive efficiency).
