My name is Alton Wells, I believe the world is worth saving and that people are good. I am a founder, product manager, data person, & most definitely not an economist.

Thoughts (aka blog)

Have meetings, only when necessary, mostly one-on-one.

Not all meetings are bad, many are unnecessary, that doesn't mean you shouldn't communicate.

Quitting Twitter & Everything Else
January 2, 2021 11:43 AM

I've been of social media for awhile (Including Twitter..I know..) but love the format of short little blurbs and ideas, so, I made this. It's my own little feed for short ideas & content that I just want to get out and share. An outlet without the ego.
