extreme handwaving hand-me-down 6 year old iBook(?) circa 2005 => wow software can be beautiful => hacking on AppleScript => hacking on iPhone OS 1.1.4 decompiled SDK => iPhone 2 with the App Store(tm) => shit, I can make money off this? => dropout => startup => sold it => saw what an acquisition looks like => by the grace of god herself, somehow made it through Google interviews.
(happy to detail more, like everyone, I love talking about myself :P but figured I'd start with the TL;DR, i.e. the App Store + subsequent boom happened at such a time that made it seems reasonable, years later, to dropout, and having 0 responsibility outside restaurant shifts gave me a fulcrum)
