I'm a tech entrepreneur and I spent the last decade founding companies that drive societal change. I am now building HeadOn, a startup still in stealth mode...I was most recently building Telepath, the world's most developer-friendly machine learning platform. Throughout my previous projects, I had learned that building machine learning powered applications is hard - especially hard when you don't have a background in data science. I believe that this is choking innovation, especially in industries that can't support large data teams.For example, I previously co-founded Call Time AI, where we used Artificial Intelligence to assemble and study the largest database of political contributions. The company powered progressive campaigns from school board to the Presidency. As of October, 2020, we helped Democrats raise tens of millions of dollars. In April of 2021, we sold Call Time to Political Data Inc.. Our success, in large part, is due to our ability to productionize machine learning.I believe that knowledge is unbounded, and that everything that is not forbidden by laws of nature is achievable, given the right knowledge. This holds immense promise for the future of intelligence and therefore for the future of well-being. I believe that the process of mining knowledge should be done honestly and responsibly, and that wielding it should be done with care. I co-founded Telepath to give more tools to more people to access more knowledge.I'm fascinated by the relationship between technology, science and history. I graduated from UC Berkeley with degrees in Astrophysics and Classics and have published several papers on those topics. I was previously a researcher at the Getty Villa where I wrote about Ancient Greek math and at the Weizmann Institute, where I researched supernovae.I currently live in New York City. I enjoy advising startups, thinking about how they can make for an excellent vehicle for addressing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and hearing from random folks who stumble on my LinkedIn profile. Reach out, friend!

Co-FounderMurmur: Video Forums For Mobile App Jun 2016 - Dec 2016The last Murmur project created a video-based public forum.Users of the Murmur app could create murmurs (30 second videos) and upload them to any of our over 40 groups, discussing topics such as Religion, Philosophy, Cute Cats, Food, and the heated US Elections 2016.Users from the community could then respond to these videos with their own video, threading together an asynchronous video conversation.During the peak of the elections season, we had several hundred users sharing their opinions and debating the issues. Shortly after the elections, we decided to focus on other projects with clearer value propositions, less nuanced path to monetization, and more rapid customer discovery process.

Co-FounderMurmur: Spatial Data Distribution Aug 2015 - Jul 2016Towards the end of 2015, Murmur had evolved from its Bluetooth origins to become a social media hub for the people in your community - primarily targeting college students. When users enter the app, they automatically see posts from other students in their area, determined solely by their physical location.With this model, we helped organizations around the UC Berkeley campus promote their events, and engage in conversation with their community. Students and local businesses could get access to a beautiful events panel, see what's happening around them, and respond to current events.After partnering with most departments and organizations on campus, we were approached by several local businesses who sought help to advertise to our users. We helped businesses create organic video advertisements with the Murmur format, for companies such as Muracci's and Subway.After peaking our user base at around 500 students, we decided to pivot in search of higher retention metrics and faster growth. The next version of Murmur would shed its location constraints entirely, and focus almost exclusively on content.

Co-FounderThe Murmur Bluetooth Project Sep 2014 - Aug 2015With the first Murmur project, we set out to answer the question "How can you do social on Bluetooth?" Here's how we responded.First, we built an iPhone application (Murmur), that allows you to see the tweets of every single person within Bluetooth range of your phone. We targeted college campuses, high schools, and co-working spaces.Realizing that fast adoption will be constrained by network effects and a dearth of data, we set out to install Bluetooth iBeacons and pre-populating them with contextually relevant Twitter accounts.We covered the UC Berkeley campus, for instance, with these small Bluetooth chips, installing them in hiding places such as bike locks and bird feeders (the latter deemed sacred by Berkeley's liberal community). This network of chips wove together the largest Bluetooth cloud to date, through which students and our chips sent messages to be picked up by users of our app.Despite reaching about 500 users on the Berkeley campus alone, we decided that the scaling concerns were too restrictive, and we set out to build a different version of a spatially contextual social app.

Astrophysics Research AssistantUc Berkeley Feb 2010 - Dec 2014Berkeley, Ca, UsI ran a survey analysis of 40 T-Tauri stars in the Taurus-Auriga cloud forming region. Working under the guidance of UC Berkeley Researcher, Gaspard Duchene, PhD, we set out to observe the peculiar behavior of systems of passive disks and those of flickering accretion.Several papers had suggested a variety of T-Tauri systems to be harboring passive disks - disks extending all the way to about 1AU of the surface of the star, but that show no evidence of active accretion. Using mid-to-low resolution spectrography from several observatories, we set out to observe those candidates in far greater detail and for far longer than any team has done previously.Aside from physically observing our candidates for several nights at the Lick Observatory, I created data-reduction procedures in IDL and scripted programs that allow us to identify emission lines in the stellar spectra from He, Na, Ca, and primarily, Hydrogen. The hydrogen H-alpha line at 6562A was our main indicator for analysis, which we used to measure its 10% width and its equivalent width.We used the two to place lower limits on the timescales (and demographics) of passive disks, and to call into question existing opinion on their consistency in establishing useful criteria for accretion, especially at the lower mass end.We published our findings in MNRAS. -
Decal Instructor ("Using Idl For Astrophysics Research")Uc Berkeley Aug 2011 - Jan 2012Berkeley, Ca, UsTaught a programming class to a group of 20 Astrophysics students for using IDL as a tool to help with Astrophysics research projects. With the help of two other student instructors (Sean Goebel and Pierre Christian), we prepared students for research courses that make heavy use of IDL in their laboratory analyses.We also covered a module in Python for students who are interested and we graded their final projects.

Greek Drama - Text MinerUc Berkeley Mar 2011 - May 2011Berkeley, Ca, UsI helped code various programs that analyze text from a large sample of Greek Tragedy and Greek Comedy for use in a paper by Classicist David Jacobson on the different uses of demonstrative adjectives in Greek Tragedy. He later published the paper with reference to the results found in my text-analysis programs.

Co-FounderVerlocal Apr 2014 - Aug 2014Verlocal began as a platform for connecting travelers with locals, who can take them around and share with them curated experiences of their city. Together, we quickly raised a seed round of ~450K from angel investors and one VC firm, and sought to capitalize on the growing trend of two-sided, sharing economy platforms.In the four months of actively working on Verlocal, I was principally in charge of our marketing and strategy, thinking of ways to penetrate into new markets, invite locals to host experiences on our platform (verlocal.com), and develop clever ways to introduce travelers to our product.Using a variety of methods, we brought over 100 unique experiences to our platform, ranging from Drag Tours of the Castro with local celebrity drag queen, to exclusive access to the behind the scenes at companies like Google and Microsoft. On the consumer facing front, I built relationships with several high-end and mid-tiers hotels in the SF Bay Area, building special profiles for them to list experiences they recommend, and sharing the profits while doing it. We operated at over 30 cities in United States by the time I left.After several months, Eugene and I left Verlocal to work on the next product of Eggstage Inc.. I believed that differences in vision among the co-founders was slowing down our growth. I wished Verlocal the greatest luck with their current vision.

Co-FounderEggstage: The Live Writing Platform Jan 2013 - Apr 2014Together with Eugene Joseph, I created the EggStage Live Writing Platform. Eugene and I sought to turn the act of writing into a live performance, where audience and fans from around the world can watch and interact with writers creating pieces character by character.We created and launched early versions of the product on the website www.eggstage.com and enlisted writers, poets, and activists to share their creations for all to see. When writers completed their pieces, the entire experience would "play back" like a video for others to watch and interact with. In order to make the experience as seamless as possible, we began the development of a "Chorus", or a unique synthesized voice that represents the voice of the community, with which the writer can interact in real time.The writer could also invite others to participate in the writing, in the form of a free and open discussion, or as a timed debate, the unfolding of which spectators could then watch.By the time we quit working on eggstage.com, the project had been built as a a single page application, but never received any marketing for us to tell how well it would do. We hoped to return to working on this project after a gig with our friend, Will, together working on our next project, Verlocal. Needless to say, we never returned to it. The dream lives on.

Classics Researcher In EducationJ. Paul Getty Museum Sep 2012 - Jan 2013UsThe year 2013 was marked as "The Year of Italian Culture" in the United States, with an unusually high circulation of art and artifacts passing through American museums. Using my background in math and Greco-Roman history, I was pleased to work under Education Specialist and Classicist Shelby Brown, PhD, to analyze and interpret the content of the well-known Archimedes Palimpsest, manuscript from which was about to arrive to the museum.The Archimedes Palimpsest is a paper by Archimedes detailing a revolutionary new method for calculating areas of unusual geometric shapes using methods that are surprisingly similar to those of Calculus. The project led me on a fascinating foray into the history of Ancient Greek mathematics, several papers about which I later wrote (see below). Some of these papers were created to instruct docents at the Getty Villa to properly instruct visitors of the mathematical context surrounding Archimedes' new method.While at the Getty, I also spearheaded a project to assess the thematic and spatial consistency of the placement of the bronze statues across the museum, comparing the current locations of the statues with those locations at the Villa of the Papyri discovered in the 18th century by the architect Karl Weber, using his own blueprints. -
ResearcherWeizmann Institute Of Science Jun 2011 - Aug 2011Rehovot, Hamerkaz, IlUsing Photometry collected by the Caltech Core-Collapse program that observed about 50 Supernovae from the Palomar Observatory, we were able to categorize Type II Supernovae into three distinct groups: constant luminosity Type IIP, slow declining Type IIL and rapidly declining Type IIb supernovae.I was guided in this project by Iair Arcavi, PhD of UC Santa Barbara, and Head of the Experimental Astrophysics group at the Weizmann Institute, Avishay Gal-Yam, PhD. The core of the project centered on collecting, measuring, and analyzing the light collected from supernovae in the CCCP project using various IRAF routines.During my stay at the Weizmann, I led a journal club presentation to the Astrophysics team at the Benoziyo Center for Physics of a paper discussing recent limits on reionization using observations from WMAP II of the Gunn-Peterson troughs in high-redshift quasars. I also led a presentation to a group of 50 summer researchers at the Weizmann of the mathematical methods used for analyzing Supernova photometry.
