Interests.

Beyond the resume.

I'm a founder and analyst by day. The rest of the time I'm either on a wall, a court, a trail, or a board. These aren't just hobbies. They're how I think.

Rock Climbing

Bouldering and sport routes. There's something about solving a problem 20 feet off the ground that makes everything else feel simple. I started indoors and took it outside. Nothing beats a good outdoor project.

Basketball

Pickup games wherever I can find a court. I grew up playing and it never left. It's one of the few things that fully turns off the analytical part of my brain, just pure read-and-react.

Board Games & Strategy

Some of my favorite moments are around a table with family and friends: Catan negotiations getting heated, Codenames going sideways, or someone getting betrayed in Coup. Anything with depth, a little chaos, and good company.

Backpacking

Disappearing into the mountains for a few days resets everything. No phone, no noise. I try to get out a few times a year. Some of my best ideas have come from long trails.
