Hoping to steer society towards a more prosperous outcome.

Generalist by heart and nature. Hacker by passion. Open minded skeptic.

A more detailed explainer on me

TL;DR

• Studied Chemical Engineering at NC State University. Worked in manufacturing, experimented with atoms. But, rapid feedback loop of engineering on bits drew my attention.
• Two time founder (unfortunately unsuccessful twice as well), YC Alum. Learned a lot from failures, but the sting is still there. Chip on my shoulder makes me work hard. Generalist with successful track record.
• Work is meant to be meaningful if the mission you are working on or the community you are serving matter to you. I choose to only work on things that are meaningful to me.
• Excited about economic prosperity, saving Earth from ourselves, exploring the frontier of Space.
