Merry Christmas and Happy 2013!
Team Gong 2012 - Enterprise
Fact Sheet
Our Mission:
Team Gong maximizes family fun by
leveraging existing and future opportunities, through education, music,
quantitative reasoning, nap time, and responsible citizenship. Now in its
eighth year of operation, Team Gong is revenue-positive, with a 100%
increase in headcount over the last 30 months. Team Gong enjoys extensive
venture backing from Lindsay Associates, Olsen Inc., Bronson & Bronson, and
the Greater Gong Dynasty.
Our Team: Once
again, Abe did not finish his
dissertation this year, but rest assured that he is "close." With the
tome underway and a nod from his committee, he set out for California to start
a job—a real job!—as data scientist at Jawbone. In this position, he creates
many graphs (some of them pretty), and uses small computers to make people
sleep more and run longer distances. Abe is excited to be returning to the
Ancestral Gong Home in Palo Alto, +/- 50 miles.
In 2012, Erin completed several strategic planning and evaluation contracts with
Michigan libraries and museums, leaving her with greater professional
confidence and a growing dislike for elements of Michigan's Tea Party. With
help from friends, family, and Amazon, she published her first book, alphAmuse.
Jonah, our resident expert on all
things Truck, turned 2 this year. His recent accomplishments
include running rapidly in circles, counting to 100, the phrase "May
I please have...?", and a lasting mutual friendship with Hopeful Penguin.
When next you see him, Jonah will likely oblige you with a rousing chorus of
"Waltzing Matilda.”
Addy joined
Team Gong on March 9 of this year. At 9 months old, she is proficient at
crawling, eating solid foods, and gathering the family for meals. We've found
her to be a cheerful and adorable explorer (and occasional pickpocket) with no
great liking for socks.
Our Values: Our
family is brave and cheerful, reverent and awesome. We are soft and share with
friends. We do not throw cups or pull hair.
