FOUNDATIONS
“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing
There is a field
I’ll meet you there.”
Truth
What matters most to me is the pursuit of Truth.
This has always been my north star.
Following what’s true is the only path I know that has led to the best times, aha moments and connections.
Don’t mind being a rebel with a cause.
Strong opinions held loosely.
Otherwise, what’s the point?
“The moment one definitely commits , then Providence moves too. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.”
All in
People come to me when they want to get things done.
If I’m here, I’m all in.
Otherwise, there’s really no point in being here.
“Every day in every way, I’m getting better, and better”
Evolving
My first job was in high school in a hospital, organizing medicine inventory and cutting gauze in emergency rooms. I’ve done many jobs since then.
My inclination has always been to act without delay, always better today than yesterday.
I find inspiration in Zaha Hadid’s buildings, Ray Kurzweil’s worlds, and the view of The Shed from the High Line.
The spark that creates bold architecture and sci fi worlds — something at the edge of advanced tech and beautiful — is, for me, the same spark that drives the desire to make systems faster, stronger, more beautiful and just better day by day.
The Muse in Challenges
In 8th grade, I was studying 12th grade maths.
Any challenge that I’ve chosen to engage with or that has shown up as a guest has only ever been a steppingstone to a new breakthrough.
Looking back, challenges have always ever been the muse for creating new beautiful things.
“No one ever said - Things are perfect. Lets invent fire.”
