Remember when you wanted to be a GI Joe or a rock star? Join us for a captivating conversation with Clark as he takes us on a nostalgic journey through his childhood dreams of heroic action figures and epic guitar solos. You'll hear the funny stories of his immersive birthday parties, organized by his ever-supportive parents, and how these early fantasies evolved into a pragmatic passion for technology and video games. Discover how Clark’s love for gaming steered him toward a career in software engineering, a field ripe with broader opportunities compared to the niche world of video game development.

But the story doesn't end there. We explore the unexpected twists and turns of Clark's career, from his transition to a managerial role to his aspirations of creating a tech-driven company that tackles significant problems. Hear about the challenges and rewards of managing people without formal training, and the emotional highs and lows of workplace interactions. Finally, we dive into the dream of leaving corporate life for a more purpose-driven endeavor, inspired by tech visionaries like Elon Musk. Whether you’re looking for career inspiration or a heartfelt story of growth and passion, this episode is packed with insights that resonate on many levels.
