What Home Means to Me

When the People Matter More Than the Physical Space — When I applied for the position of Head of Product at Sparrow, I was asked to “describe what home means to you.” It wasn’t until after being on the job for a few weeks that I fully grasped how intertwined my values were with both our company vision and the…
