Finding real problems
I started in competitive debate, teaching people how to reason, argue, and change minds. That foundation shapes how I approach building: clarity over complexity, structure over chaos.
Since then, I've built marketplaces, raised funding, scaled products to hundreds of thousands of users, and worked across AI, Web3, and civic tech. I've seen what works and what doesn't.
Now I'm focused on SuperDebate (restoring the values of the Greek agora) and Accelerate (helping Web3 builders find funding and resources).
AI-native builder. Architecting intelligent systems, ML pipelines, and automation workflows. Not just prompting, but building the infrastructure.
I see the connections others miss. Every product exists within systems of incentives, behaviors, and constraints.
Not just using AI tools. Architecting intelligent systems, automation pipelines, and ML-powered products.
From concept to shipped product. I don't just strategize. I build, ship, and iterate.
Technology serves people, not the other way around. Every system I build puts humans first.
Started in competitive debate instruction at Chicago Debates. Learned how people reason, argue, and change their minds. This foundation informs everything I build today.
Founded HelpWith (skill-sharing marketplace) and Sparkblox (raised $1M+ for no-code NFT infrastructure). Learned to build platforms that connect people and scale social value.
Product & Ops at Upland.me (Web3 virtual economy). Managed token economies, player dynamics, and transaction systems at scale.
Building SuperDebate (restoring the values of the Greek agora) and Accelerate (Web3 builder intelligence). Combining AI automation with systems that serve human flourishing.
The best ideas should win. Communities should form around shared purpose. Technology should make us more capable, not more dependent.
