I didn't play any extreme sports growing up. I never surfed, and I grew up in Santa Cruz. I was very good at doing what I was told, taking direction, and staying middle of the road. I mean, they called me 'grandma' in college.

Eventbrite is 50-50 male-female, and this has been accomplished organically.

That seems to be my superpower - really understanding what motivates people.

If you want to build a sustainable culture, you have to have a strong philosophy and then let people do with it what they will and be OK with that.

I've got incredible support from my wife and family and people around me. I've got great people around me who handle anything on the outside, business-wise, who help free me up to create in my job.

As a mom, I know it is my responsibility, and no one else's, to raise my kids. But we have to ask ourselves, what does it mean when so many parents are finding their best efforts undermined by an avalanche of advertisements aimed at our kids.

I have some lovely friends and an amazing family, and I feel very lucky with that.

My family is my biggest critic. Since they come from a non-filmi background, they give me an audience's point of view. They have been very supportive of me.
