I’m on a mission to help unite humanity — by using AI to leverage social psychology in order to advance the way people connect and reason with one another. My dream is a world with more solidarity, belonging, and respect, where we lift one another up, achieve our full potential together, and find happiness in our shared efforts. It’s a dream to me worth fighting for.
“The peoples of this world must unite or they will perish.”
— J. Robert Oppenheimer
“Our ability to reach unity in diversity will be the beauty and the test of our civilization.”
— Mahatma Gandhi

My journey up to now has been interdisciplinary. My early years skewed mathematical and technical: I started writing code at twelve, studied applied math at Carnegie Mellon, and entered into the professional world as a Wall Street quant. I then spent over a decade as a global macro strategist, studying markets through the lenses of economics, (geo)politics, psychology, and sociology — including AI’s implications on all of the above.
