Overview
About Me
Hey! I'm a very open and curious person. I love discussing consciousness, rapping, sipping green tea, meditating, playing basketball, and hanging out with perro salchichas.
I'm currently very excited about the potential of Bitcoin to provide a sound currency for the world. I'm working to spread bitcoin in Latin America by consulting for startups, giving free workshops, and learning python to build Bitcoin apps. I'm also fascinated by consciousness, which I love to explore via conversation, meditation, and a newfound interest in machine learning.
I've had the great fortune of living in a variety of places. For the past 4 years, I've been in Mexico City helping to start and grow a solar energy startup. Before that I lived in San Francisco and New York City while working on other clean energy startups. I spent my childhood in Memphis, New Orleans, and Nashville.
