• My name is George Saines, I've been reading HN several times a day since 2007. In fact, it was partially because of you folks that my two friends and I formed a startup in 2008. Three rounds of funding, innumerable mistakes, and 5 years later, we started our second venture http://www.codecombat.com and got accepted to to the YC W14 batch on stage at Startup School 2013.

  I stopped working on CodeCombat in early 2015 and worked at a startup called Lovely, then Salesforce, then Facebook, over to Google, and back to Facebook.

  Personally, I enjoy downhill skiing, talking about cars and computers, working with my hands, blogging, and music videos. Although I wasn't a computer science major, I've built two products from the ground up with the help of my two cofounders. If you'd like to drop me a line you can do so at my personal email gsaines at gmail.com
