Comment on Ask HN: How to describe myself as an entrepreneur without sounding cocky?parent

Comments

This is good advice. Personally, I call myself a "founder" or "co-founder" over "entrepreneur."

For in-person interactions, whenever someone asks me what I do, I always just say I work for a tiny company that does XYZ. If they pursue and ask what I do for the company, I say I bounce around doing a bunch of things (which founders do).
