Awesome, I'm definitely down to talk. Sending you an email now. Also my LinkedIn is: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hankholiday

I think you're absolutely right that not everyone is equally employable right off the bat (though most folks can, with time and effort, become super valuable team members). It's ve…
