When you look at UserEvidence co-founder Evan Huck's résumé on paper, what stands out most isn't just the headlines of what he's done-it's how fast he moved through it. From a bootstrapped startup, to getting acquired by a massive enterprise, to turning around and starting something new-this time with VC money and a bold vision. All of that, in just ten years.

But what makes Evan's story worth telling isn't the milestones-it's what was happening underneath it all. The bets he made. The mentors he leaned on, even at the top. And the challenge of building a company while becoming a new parent. This chapter of his story is about momentum, humility, and the mindset it takes to stay grounded while moving fast

• Advice to Founders: What Evan would (and wouldn't) change - including his take on fundraising, risk, and staying calm
• Mentors Matter: How learning from Brad helped shape his leadership philosophy and product vision
