  • Removed not needed Linked in page for co founder.

For notability purposes here are the reference I am using to meet the requirements. I had a MAJOR realization I was using the article to try to show notability which made it look messy, spammy, and promotional... I hope this looks better. WP:ARTN was huge for me.

@Praxidicae: - I believe I have satisfied your promotional concern. See above and the article... would love your feedback.

@Deb: - I believe I have settled your notability questions see below and on my talk page.

I worked really hard to clean up this article so I hope you guys like it better.
