Reflections on My Last Day at Adobe

Just finished my last day working at Adobe.

I’ll be honest. It hurt.

This place was more than just a job.

Adobe, like many current and former employees can confirm, was unlike anything I have been a part of.

Its people, culture, energy, and products play a special role in the world. More than most folks believe.

This chapter was more than just a career opportunity. It was answered prayer for a young man looking to “cut his teeth” and break into #tech.

Never forgetting the call I got from my manager, Rani Mani, hinting that I got the job.

Little did I know how much my life would change moving to the Bay Area 2 years later.

The amount I’ve grown as a professional and person is a deep, deep personal accomplishment. One that will stay will me for a lifetime.

As one door closes, a bigger one opens 🚪

The best is yet to come. Watch this space.

Until then, thank you, Adobe 🅰️

What a wild ride.
