Some things about me:

I'm currently doing research + creating something new at OpenAI.
Before this, I spent a year doing deep dives in residence at Bain Capital Ventures and realizing what I want to make of my life, 3 years as a founding engineer at thirdweb, and 2 years studying computer science and neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania [now on leave].
I love creating [writing, software, startups]. Startups are special because they let you create beautiful things for the world at scale.
I see art as the product of any creative process with constraints. I view startups as the art form of capitalism, and life as the ultimate art form.
My personal philosophy has changed drastically over the past decade. My current world view is a synthesis of ideas from non-dualism, Kashmir Shaivism, Advaita Vedanta, Buddhism, and Christianity.

Some things I'm interested in:

Neuroscience and neurotech. They combine many of my biggest interests: computation, intelligence, consciousness, and philosophy.
Education, especially in early development [ages 0-14] where many critical behaviors are solidifed. I will work on this in the future.
Health and fitness. I like optimizing for athleticism as the balance between aesthetics and functionality.
I like learning new things, especially from people who see beauty in their subject. I am interested in learning about everything important to anything [with priority on the highest leverage ideas].
I like beautiful art of all forms [anime, visual arts, music, games].
