CURRENT MISSION Help people help others ABOUT ME I moved often growing up, starting in New York and passing through most Midwest states before moving to Seattle in 2015. Having spent time on food stamps, I launched FoodCircles in college—an app to feed local families and children simply by trying out restaurants around town. This startup plus a documentary in India helped me commit to solving problems I hated rather than only doing what I loved. After consulting for startups and nonprofits, I started a social enterprise called Samaritan to eliminate unneeded friction between seeing someone's need on the street and helping them. I am grateful to have earned a degree from the University of Michigan in Informatics and Economics. PHILOSOPHY Let your actions do the talking.

Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
A ghost in India who told me the name of my father's mother, how much I had spent on the trip so far, and that I had gotten into a recent accident on a red moped.
