Hi! I'm currently chasing convexity through systems managing over $1B in value across MRGN and Temporal. Here is a bit of my background, some media, some writing, and answers to questions you might have:
Work
Presently, I'm iterating in a nascent industry with a shrewd team at the intersection of finance & crypto. Previously, I built a hedge fund, sold a healthtech company, & grew orgs at-scale before dropping out to work & invest in Web3.
