We looked for more than eight months for a place for Harmonic and we were getting discouraged. It is perfect for us.Р”В®ddie did a pub crawl here with his wife and had a chance to explore the neighborhood. Everyone is so friendly and wants us to succeed. We love how neighbors have stopped by while we were under construction to wish us well and to welcome us to Dogpatch. It's industrial but it is also a real neighborhood. JV: This neighborhood is the perfect vibe for us. I feel so fortunate that a hobby has translated into a career. It is what I always enjoyed doing when I wasn't working so the opportunity to turn this into my career was a no-brainer for me. I love interacting with people who care about the product we are making.Р”В®T: This is strictly a passion project for me. JV: It feels so great to be making a tangible product versus working on spreadsheets and being in client meetings and chained to a desk.

We know we have to earn that and we are up for it!

I want it to be like the old school places in San Francisco that we used to go to when we first came to SF and that we feel are now disappearing. I want this to be a place where people want to come again and again - to make it their hang out. And then the creative aspect of creating something and sharing it with customers and to get that feedback whether good or bad. I love the science aspect of the work - to tinker with the recipes and see what works and what doesn't work.
