Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders

Description

Mark Hendricks has been a product designer for 11 years. His family and he love to travel, see the world and visit national parks. He currently live in Spain with his wife and son, off the grid. And by off the grid, I mean a house on 20 acres, with its own solar power system, and own rain water collection system. But don't worry... he made sure he checked the LGE network speed before buying the property. Five years ago, he started a side project, building a weather app that combined up to date weather with his wife's beautiful landscape illustrations. Shortly after - Apple started promoting their apps, and their business started to take off. Today, they have ventured into nature based mindfulness apps, through their company known as Wild Ventures.
