More about me

I often get asked these questions.

Where is home?

I have multiple homes! Janesville, WI / Minneapolis, MN 📍 / Austin, TX.

Your home page says you're a futurist. What does that mean?

I wanted a less cringe-y way to say "technologist." I believe accelerating technological progress is the most powerful way to improve the human experience going into the future. I want humanity to succeed, and that will naturally require advancements in frontier tech like nuclear fusion, expansion into low-Earth orbit, robotics, bitcoin, and more.

Almost 4 and a half years full-time!
