American tennis great Serena Williams-s husband and entrepreneur Alexis Ohanian, has revealed that it was their daughter who inspired him to step down from Reddit-s Board of Directors.
Last week, Alexis, 37, resigned from the top post, to make way for black leadership. "You know, Reddit was my first child. I started it right out of college. I was a kid who walked out of an LSAT to go to a Waffle House and decided he wanted to become an entrepreneur," he said on the American TV show, CBS This Morning.
"But looking inward, it was a hard decision until it was a really easy one…when I remembered that my greatest creation is not and never will be Reddit. It-s my daughter, and I want her to be proud of her father," he added.
