    I am very impressed to see a black man doing so well in a field that we are not appreciated for. Algorithms for Snapchat, Instagram and Uber is no mean feat. Interesting to find out that he was responsible for helping the late Nipsey Hussle turn around an abandoned storefront in Los Angeles into a busy store. With all of the partnerships and programs he plans to run, I see a great future for him. Good luck son.
