I’m working on how to enable more amazing sci-fi things to become reality. I also host the Idea Machines Podcast where I have long form conversations with experts in different innovation systems. In the past I was an EIR at Entrepreneur First in Singapore where I helped ambitious people build teams and companies. Before that I was a different kind of EIR Susa Ventures and tried to use robots to help older adults stay at home longer. Deeper in the past, I taught computers to understand the world at Magic Leap. I used to build tractor beams for space robotics at Cornell. I’ve, been a plumber, an archer, a waiter, a nazgul, and an oregano salesman. I’m one of the few people in the world with a Bachelor of Science in History. Multi-Class Fighter/Mage with some levels in Bard.
