I met Dan Rasmuson, the up-and-coming young CTO of Labelbox through First Round Fast Track, a 90-day program that matches tech veterans with First Round-backed founders and execs for 1–1 mentorship.

During our first meeting in the Mission District, Dan’s first question was “How do I avoid my own blind spot?”. To be honest, this surprised me because I very much expected Dan to ask for guidance related to product growth, adoption and hiring talents — things that I have been asked very frequently.
