About
I want to build things that measurably improve people's lives.
So I spend my time on what excites me and teaches me something, with people I admire.
That's my definition of success. From the outside it can look like an unbalanced life, obsessed with a few things, alongside a small number of people.
To me, this is pure divinity 🍀
