Who am I?

I’m an investor, founder, biohacker, New Yorker, tech nerd, gamer, golfer, engineer and more. I like to think deeply and read deeply. I’ve had a… reasonably successful career by my high standards, having worked at top firms like a16z, McKinsey, and Riot before starting my own company. But more than that, I like to share the founding and investing journey and write my musings to the internet. I’ve learned a lot from building a16z speedrun and all my interactions with founders that I want to share to the internet.

Writing helps me think, and people have described me as honest and direct and unafraid to tell the unvarnished truth.

If you’re interested in tech, philosophy, bio, consumer, or AI, I’d encourage you to subscribe. Paid subscribers get my paid-only posts (more hands-on and longer form) as well as the ability to DM me.
