Some call me a "Renaissance Man."

Others call me a "Swiss Army Knife."

I am at my core both a practitioner and a scientist, pursuing truth and eudaimonia through my work, personal projects, and deep reflection. I am a measured and innovative thinker, a Stoic, a polyglot, and a self-driven leader who prioritizes meaningful work and meaningful relationships.

I am sincere, kind, compassionate, and loving. I prioritize being a great listener and connecting with people through a lens of humility, humanizing others by seeing the whole person.

I have developed these characteristics and abilities through a career that has fused many seemingly diverging areas, from research, psychological science, and education, to business development, operations, travel, meditation, reading, and writing.

Living in Brazil for three years and becoming a part of my wife’s family and friend group there, traveling to dozens of countries, and making hundreds of friends from nearly a quarter of the countries on Earth have opened my mind and heart in the most beautiful and unexpected ways. It has added depth to what I bring to the table, going so far beyond what the world would have predicted for a man born into a rural/suburban monolingual family in Upstate New York, whose great and great great grandparents arrived to Ellis Island on boats from Poland and Germany a century and a half ago.
