3. You have an understanding how founders grow, pivot, and stay connected over time.
4. You enjoy paying attention to detail, bringing structure to dynamic and managing multiple alumni relationships and touchpoints without losing track.
5. You are proactive and self-motivated, and you enjoy building new things from the ground up and are comfortable iterating as you go.
