Just updated my address to reflect our move from MA to CA, that's why I'm no longer verified. Just waiting for the postcard :). CURRENT MISSION Climate ABOUT ME I work for a start up in Pleasanton, CA and have a penchant for taking on long term socially and environmentally driven non-profit and entrepreneurial projects, though I've been too busy since getting this job. Previously, these focused on using technology in education in semi-rural Nigeria and crowd-sourcing the design of the perfect re-usable water bottle. Take back the TAP! Now, I think that I'm going to take up Climate Action--seems pretty pressing. PHILOSOPHY It used to be 'Comfortable is dead, find your edge' Oh, and things would be better if we all meditated (more)
