- Ali Debow, the founder of Swsh, shares her journey as an entrepreneur and the inspiration behind her startup. Swsh is a social photo album that helps people share photos and stay connected after meeting at events. Ali chose the Thiel Fellowship to meet new people and engage in community building. She emphasizes the importance of resilience and being unbreakable as an entrepreneur. Ali dropped out of school to focus on Swish full time and believes that being a good student is subjective. She recommends documenting ideas and thoughts to gain clarity and focus. Her top resource recommendations are Z Fellows, Lenny's podcast, and the book Zero to One by Peter Thiel.
