I’m an AI policy researcher serving as the Director of Research for the Windfall Trust, a non-profit focused on ensuring that the economic benefits of advanced AI are shared by everyone.

I also lead the AGI Social Contract, a consortium of experts proposing concrete strategies to design a new social contract for a post-AGI society.

My current priority is to drastically increase the number of researchers investigating strategies to navigate the upcoming AI economic transformation.

I was formerly the AI Governance Lead for Convergence Analysis. At Convergence, I hosted a conference on AI economic impacts and have been guiding thirty fellows conducting economic policy research. Before my focus on AI economics, I conducted research on foundational AI governance policies (e.g. chip registries & model registries) & soft nationalization.

Previously, I was the fifth software engineer and the lead of various projects at Alchemy, an Ethereum infra startup now valued at $10.2 billion. At Alchemy, I created web3.university, a learning platform with over 200k students.

From 2015 − 2018, I was a rapid prototyping researcher at Google’s Interaction Lab, where I led software & UX explorations for a next-gen Google Glass. Projects I prototyped include the augmented memory and translation features for the Android XR Glasses.
