He’s also a father of two teenage boys, a husband of nearly 25 years, and a pilot who spends much of his free time flying on nonprofit humanitarian missions.\nI reached out to Ghazi after a LinkedIn post he wrote about why teenagers should spend more time building with AI tools instead of defaulting to traditional summer jobs went viral.
