A product of the ailing American public school system, I found myself disappointed and ready to see it change.

Along the way I also picked up passions for efficient markets, disruptive technologies, media, design, economics, statistics, business strategy, and the internet at large.

I work for a niche social network, Zinch, that allows students a platform to showcase their academic self and be discovered by colleges, grad schools, scholarships and young professional opportunities.

Recently, I was selected as a Bay Area EdTech Entrepreneur. The lab is a joint program between NewSchools Venture Fund, Teach for America, and the Stanford dSchool.
