I had a guidance counsellor who made me take an aptitude test, and told me I should be a bricklayer.

I felt the need to unlearn my formal education.

I know what it feels like to struggle to get the education that you need.

People see me, and they think they went to college with me; there's no immediate identification.

As much as we sometimes roll our eyes at the ivory-tower isolation of universities, they continue to serve as remarkable engines of innovation.

I like the fact that I'm living in the world rather than in a university.

I consider myself a laborer, building my career brick over brick under the sun.

I was in an industrial laboratory because academia found me unsuitable.

I didn't finish college, which is really weird because they awarded me the Alumni of Distinction recently.
