Hi, I'm Alex. This is Brandon and Mike, and together with our trusty prototype Marvin, we are Varden Labs.

I've been programming since I was 13 years old. I was ranked as one of the top 20 programmers in Canada in high school, and most recently, I worked as a software engineering intern at Khan Academy in Mountain View.

I'm Mike. I do mechanical stuff at Varden Labs. I've done mechanical stuff all my life. I built my own fully custom 3D printer, electric scooter, and most recently worked at a YC alum, Thalmic Labs, as their mechanical intern.

Hi, I'm Brandon, and I'm doing software and electrical. Before Barton Labs, I had worked at three startups, all with aggressive development confidence. The most recent was an artificial intelligence company where I was programming robots to interact with their environment.

The three of us were in the same mechatronics engineering class at the University of Waterloo. We've lived together for the last two years and worked on lots of projects together. This is by far our favorite, and we're really excited to see how it's going to transform the future of transportation.

Peter Lynch: How to Achieve a 30% Return Per Year

I’m amazed how many people own stocks. They would not be able to tell you why they own it. They couldn’t say in a minute or less why they own it. If you really press them down, they’d say the reason I own this is, “The sucker’s going up,” and that’s the o…
