I'm working on something new to help frontier labs train the best AI coding agents.

Most days I read, write, build things, and meet other interesting people. If that's you, say hi.

I previously built two e-commerce software startups. I bootstrapped one to $1.5M ARR and sold it for $9M.

I did a short stint at Goldman Sachs in the TMT investment banking group—I enjoyed it, but not what I wanted my life's work to be.

I studied business and CS at USC, before dropping out for Y-Combinator.
