Here are some things I’ve designed & developed. Let’s explore potential synergies!

I’m passionate about making the world a better place & living a fulfilling life.

I’m a social and tech entrepreneur passionate about societal transformation and life improvement.

To advance societal transformation, I cofounded Roote, a $1M+ nonprofit working on improving societal systems. These systems range from mitigating the causes of existential threats to humanity (meta existential risk) to making digital feeds less addictive and divisive, and more informative and useful (Tweetscape). To advance life improvement, I founded Better, a social enterprise that researches, builds, and shares the best ways for people to improve their own lives and the world. I also run Antigravity Investments, an investment firm that increases funding for good causes by helping donors and charities better grow their savings.

Some of my projects include an instant phone-to-phone contact sharing app (Connec), a podcast on personal development (the Growth Podcast), and a research article exploring the actual impact of impact investing (published here).

Learning about wellness at UC Berkeley, eating novel street food in Taiwan, and exploring amazing digital worlds in VR during the pandemic were some highlights for me this past few years and I am looking forward to gaining new skills, interests, and experiences!

Here are some of the hats I wear!

Leader

I love crafting business and product strategy and working with talented teams to execute those strategies. That’s why I became a social entrepreneur, executive, and PM.

Builder

Whether it’s handling HR and compliance, thinking of UX designs, or writing code, I do whatever it takes to bring world-changing visions to life.

Funder

I’ve always been very meta, and as a venture capitalist and grantmaker, I love providing funding and support to make high-impact ventures possible.

Investor

I’ve spent years optimizing how people and organizations invest. In our current “pre-post-scarcity” world, money makes things happen, and that’s why I apply my investing knowledge to help the charitable sector, thus making more good things happen!

Researcher

I love researching high-impact topics! I particularly enjoyed using public data to calculate which charities could earn millions with better cash management and analyzing RCTs to determine that vitamin D supplementation can help deficient individuals live longer.

Advisor

I like sharing my knowledge with people and spend some of my time running student internship programs, providing mentorship, advising startups and organizations, and coaching people regarding personal finance and self-improvement.
