I'm am unapologetically eccentric dude who is obsessed with trying to make sense of the world in an environment full of agenda, pretension, performance, dogma, groupthink, reductivism, and anger. I am confident that there are better ways to do just about everything, and am dedicated to figuring out how to solve big problems and sharing my discoveries with the world.

I believe how we live on this planet is in many ways absurd but in more ways impossibly beautiful life. I believe life is a miracle and am amazed that all of this gestures at the world works as well it does.

I abstain from or place strict limits on dating, eating, drinking, and casually hanging out, and I usually work 6-7 days a week, because I have for now decided to be laser focused on turning myself into a relentlessly resourceful Swiss Army knife who can help people make sense of and do good in the world. I want people to understand what it actually takes to make constructive change in the world. You could say that I want to help people-who-want-to-help-people help people better.

I question everything. That doesn't mean that I don't appreciate how things are. It is that I believe we must regularly turn a critical eye to culture and institutions and ponder how they can be shifted for the betterment of all.
