About

I grew up in Perth, Western Australia, and graduated as valedictorian from the University of Western Australia.

Things I’m working on and interested in:

‍

Writing. I try to only release essays when I have something to say.
AI. My (long) note on artificial intelligence. Previously I built and sold an AI Media Company, called the Intelligence Age.
Improving our social fabric. Maple is a company I co-founded in early 2024 to tackle inefficiences in the dating market and reverse major societal trends including loneliness, lower household formation rates, and birth rates.
Investing. Current areas of interest are energy, defence, space, and manufacturing. I’m a scout for AirTree Ventures (~$1.3bn fund). I've invested in more than 15 startups.
History. Faster Than Normal is my outlet to study history’s greatest people.
Music. I have been a top 0.005% Spotify listener of Rufus Du Sol for several years. I enjoy everything from classical to country to techno.

Competition. In a previous life, I played Water Polo for Australia. I'm an amateur poker and pool player.
