“You can't meaningfully shape something you don't understand.”
AI is reshaping the world — power, security, markets, truth itself. The future it creates could be extraordinary or catastrophic, and the difference comes down to how we fund, build, and govern it.
I believe we're living through one of the most consequential technological shifts in human history, and that the people shaping AI policy, the people building AI systems, and the people funding them need to actually understand each other.
For the last two years, I've been planting myself in all three worlds: studying the policy and national security implications of emerging tech, building products with AI, and working to understand how capital shapes which technologies actually reach the world. Because the future of AI isn't just a technical or political question — it's a financial one too.
I'm drawn to hard problems — the kind where the answer isn't obvious and the stakes are real. How do we govern autonomous systems in warfare? How does AI reshape the balance between great powers? How does money decide which version of the future we get? I don't have all the answers, but I think asking the right questions matters.
At my core, I'm a builder and a learner. I'd rather be wrong and in the arena than safe on the sidelines. I'm early in this journey, but I know I want to be at the forefront of whatever comes next.
