About

Background

I'm a systems scientist and researcher with a foundation in cryptoeconomic systems.

After graduating from USC in 2012, I immersed myself in the early cryptocurrency ecosystem, studying blockchain technologies and cryptoeconomic mechanisms. This independent learning journey with Bitcoin and Ethereum provided me the freedom to pursue research interests without traditional constraints.

By 2017-18, I began questioning the extent to which crypto could address deeper systemic issues, which led me to explore systems science more broadly. This intellectual journey was catalyzed by works like Donella Meadows' "Thinking in Systems" and George Mobus' "Principles of Systems Science."

I publish a systems-focused newsletter and am pursuing a master's degree in systems science at Binghamton University.

My current research focus on the intersection of systems theory, analysis, and technology.
