Yuchun Lee of Allego: The Value of a Daily Mistake
This interview with Yuchun Lee, C.E.O. and co-founder of Allego, a Boston-area start-up focused on sales education, has been edited for space and clarity.
Q. What were your early years like?
A. I was born and raised in Taiwan. My father was a captain on oil tankers, so he was never home. My mother was a stay-at-home mom. I have two sisters.
I’ve been an entrepreneur since kindergarten. My first gig started because my father would travel back from Japan and bring me these really fancy stickers that changed pictures based on your perspective. I would sell them at school. Later on, I sold silkworms in elementary school.
