FULL TRANSCRIPTION OF THE INTERVIEW:
Alejandro: Alrighty. Hello everyone, and welcome to the DealMakers show. Today, we have a great founder that has done it a few times. There are definitely a lot of lessons learned along the way, and we’re definitely going to be discussing them in detail today. So without further ado, let’s welcome our guest today. Ariel Katz, welcome to the show.

Ariel Katz: I’m excited to be here. Thanks for having me.

Alejandro: So, born in New York City and growing up in the Upper West Side. How was life growing up there?

Ariel Katz: It was good. It was all I knew until I left New York City and realized that not everyone lives in New York City, and it’s a very big world outside of New York.
