After working for 2 years in Silicon Valley building Internet infrastructure for large scale e-commerce sites during the dot-com bubble, I returned to study Cognitive Science and Human-Computer Interaction at the University of California at San Diego. Before graduating, I also attended an academic program for non-business students at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business. I am

I am currently co-founder of a Y Combinator backed startup based in San Francisco called ReadyForZero.
