Welcome to our eighth episode!  

Our special guest for this episode is our good friend Kyle Chua.  

Kyle is a recent graduate of the University of Southern California where he majored in Computer Science & Business Administration. Kyle works as a Software Engineer at Yelp. During college, he was a Teaching Assistant for courses in Full-Stack Web Development and Web Publishing. He was also a Research Associate for the USC School of Pharmacy where he created a tool to help with data analysis of FDA reports. Outside of school, he interned at a couple of tech startups in the hospitality and travel industries, then later at Etsy, where he helped build a variety of amazing features used by millions of people.  

Kyle shares with us about his upbringing in Vancouver and how his experiences working in his family-owned restaurant helped shape him to who he is now. We also chatted about dealing with things in our control vs. things outside of our controls and share how we overcame some of failures. We also talk a little bit about what we've learned while recruiting in tech.
