Most “About” pages offer a concise summary of the subject’s background that can be copy-pasted and read when introducing them before an interview or something.

”Let me tell you what I wish I’d known, when I was young and dreamed of glory. You have no control who lives, who dies, who tells your story.” -General Washington, Hamilton
