I’m so amped that our startup @TeamTourus was accepted into the @beondeck accelerator (#ODX1)! This year has been a whirlwind (it still is), but experiences like this one are what’s carrying me through ✨
I'm honored and thrilled that Tourus will be part of #ODX1! Tourus is still so new, but the excitement and support @thalidanoel and I have received has meant SO much in these short months.

I’ve been tweeting semi-serious things, and I need to remind y’all who I am: 2021: While you were knitting and baking bread. I started a turf war. 2022: I make it stop motion.
