The short version: I think in systems and build selectively.
A longer look at who I am, what I care about, and the trajectory I'm on.
I came to technology through curiosity about how systems work — not just software systems, but market systems, organizational systems, and the feedback loops that connect them. That curiosity hasn't faded. If anything, it's deepened.
My interests span technology, markets, and entrepreneurship. I'm particularly drawn to blockchain infrastructure, quantitative approaches to markets, and the design of systems that create compounding value over time. I care about the intersection of these fields because that's where the most interesting — and most misunderstood — problems live.
I don't come from a traditional finance background or a traditional engineering background. I think of that as an advantage. I see patterns that specialists miss, and I ask questions that people inside a single discipline don't think to ask.
I default to systems thinking — asking how parts connect, where feedback loops exist, and what the second- and third-order effects of a decision might be. I'm skeptical of narratives that explain too much too neatly, and I try to hold multiple models in my head at once.
I believe in long time horizons. Most of what matters compounds slowly and is invisible in the short term. The best investments — in careers, in businesses, in ideas — are the ones you can hold through noise.
I write to think, and I build to test my thinking. Both activities are part of the same intellectual process: developing conviction through iteration, not theory.
Technology as Infrastructure
Not technology as hype, but technology as the substrate for new systems — blockchain, AI, programmable finance, and the tools that reshape how value moves.
Markets as Information Systems
Markets are the most complex information-processing systems humans have built. Understanding their structure — how they price risk, allocate capital, and fail — is endlessly fascinating to me.
Building with Integrity
I'm interested in building things that work, not things that look impressive on a slide deck. Honest work, honest metrics, honest outcomes.
Ideas That Compound
I'm drawn to ideas with long half-lives — mental models, frameworks, and principles that get more useful over time, not less.
I'm early in what I intend to be a long and non-linear career. Right now, I'm focused on deepening my understanding of markets and technology, building projects that sharpen my thinking, and writing to share what I learn.
I'm looking for work that puts me close to complex problems, smart people, and real stakes. I thrive in environments where systems thinking matters, intellectual honesty is valued, and the timeline for impact is measured in years, not sprints.
If that resonates, I'd welcome the conversation.
