About
My mission is to use AI to positively impact how people live, think, and feel every day.
I studied engineering and the mathematics behind AI in college, co-founded an AI marketing tech company in 2015, built Colorado's largest startup community, and co-founded the state's largest angel investment network.
Now I'm combining my love of AI, neuroscience, and community building into my next project: SoulCraft. Launching soon.
