I grew up in Cashmere, Washington, a town of about 3,000 people in the eastern part of the state. It was pretty isolating living there. However, it was located in a picturesque area, I made some life-long friends, and I wouldn't be the person I am today without that experience. The background photo was taken on a hike near my home.

I have a very supportive family. They are always there to lend a helpful perspective and push me in a positive direction. The background photo was taken of us all in Tiananmen Square in Beijing, China.

I had a great college experience academically and personally. I majored in both Philosophy and Economics at Claremont McKenna College. I was exposed to many interesting ideas, made some good friends, and partied too much. The background photo was taken during Graduation.

Ever since my internship at Google, I knew I wanted to work in tech. After graduation, I worked at Square and then at 0x, a decentralized exchange protocol on Ethereum. I then spent 4 years as the Head of Growth at the Solana Foundation. Now, I’m a General Partner at a crypto venture fund called Colosseum. The background photo was taken of my old coworkers and I in Seoul, South Korea.

Music has always been an important part of my life. I took 14 years of weekly piano lessons and traveled all over the PNW competing. Listen to a recital I gave in high school here and here. In college, my taste changed from Beethoven to Porter Robinson. I now listen to electronic music every day and regularly attend live shows.
