关于我

CURRENT MISSION

To see the world, to say yes to everything, and figure out what the hell I'm doing here.

ABOUT ME

"... The people who move through the streets are all strangers. At each encounter, they imagine a thousand things about one another; meetings which could take place between them, conversations, surprises, caresses, bites. But no one greets anyone; eyes lock for a second, then dart away, seeking other eyes, never stopping..."

I'm here to break the veil.

I'm someone who insists on music, novelty, and challenge. I love meeting people and soaking up new experiences. At times I can be a solitary soul, but meeting people and sharing my experiences with others is so important. I want to face fear in the eye and befriend it.

Don't worry though, I only talk in mystical-sounding riddles when writing online profiles.

I'm 26 years old, but my mental age is more like 60. I'm an old man in a young dude's body. Truth is, I grew up pretty fast. I became a high-stakes professional poker player and was financially independent since I was 17, and I walked away from that career several years ago. I then worked as a mental coach for professional poker players and daytraders, wrote a best-selling book about everything poker taught me, transitioned into the tech world, taught at a coding bootcamp, and now I'm a software engineer at Airbnb.

I want to meet you. You're interesting, and you know it. Tell me a story.

PHILOSOPHY

Say yes to everything.
