My first semi-serious, long-form thing I've ever written 😬

So I guess I started a blog/newsletter 🤷‍♂️ I called it That Dude Denis (cuz I'm a dude, and my name is Denis)

It started out as just writing a thing to respond to a subject that kept popping up when i talked to my Bay Area friends : our perspectives / experiences leaving our Apple jobs to move to Paris 2 years ago. OK, cool, I'll just write a quick thing and that's it.

But then I was like, wait, I also have some side projects and a startup I'm at the beginning of launching, so why not take this opportunity to do some build-in-public / full transparency stuff that I've been seeing all over IH and Twitter recently? (I think that must mean I'm following the right people, right?)

So, I came up with That Dude Denis. The idea is twofold :

  1. to share my experiences in the most open and transparent way possible as I try to become an entrepreneur for the first time
  2. to tell you about some important steps in my life that have led me to embarking on this journey

My objective is simply to share my perspectives and experiences with you in the hopes that something may help you in some way, that’s all.

If you’re in Big Tech, startup-land, or you’re just interested in entrepreneurship, this stuff should be in ur wheelhouse. But heads up, u need to like sarcasm and a dry sense of humor 😉

First post is about why we left Apple and moved to Paris 2 years ago!

Would really love to get ur thoughts and feedback! First timer here, so seriously pls lower ur expectations before clicking the link 🙏
