Let me tell you a little more about her.

"We, right now, are exploring a lot about the Metaverse, and how that will re-shape how we interact with each other. How businesses interact with their customers. How we can even do things, like, bring therapy right to people who may not have access through the Metaverse, and, so, I think that's going to completely change the way we as human beings work, and really spend time with each other. So, that I'm really excited about."
