Sylvan was part of the cross-functional Product Operations & Insights team at Entrepreneur First. He was an absolutely brilliant team mate to work with. His focus on users and customers, his attention to detail, proactivity, and foresight - and infectiously positive energy - made him such a pleasure to work with. I know he'll go on to do awesome things.
