I live at the intersection of human values, the law, and business strategy, focused on a singular commitment: helping things survive.

Based in Berkeley as the founder of Ciph Lab, I design the systems that keep human agency at the center of accelerating technology. I love big ideas, bringing visions to life, and untangling the hardest problems we face. Yet, I am equally guided by a quiet appreciation for nature and art—a constant reminder of the conscious future we are working to preserve.

Help me grow my startup, Ciph Lab:

Building an independent operating layer for AI governance requires collective momentum. Here is how you can help bring this vision to life:

• Amplify the Certificate Program: We are launching Cohort 1 of the IR™ AI Governance Operator Certificate this October. If you know practitioners, legal ops leaders, or policy professionals looking to build real-world operational readiness, introduce them to our ecosystem.
• Connect Us with Enterprise Pilots: Introduce Ciph Lab to organizations navigating the complexities of scaling AI. We help teams bridge the gap between policy and daily business execution using our diagnostic tools and frameworks.
• Share Operational Insights: If you are working directly on translating frontier safety standards into corporate structures, let’s connect. I am always looking to collaborate with builders who care about the long-term survival and responsibility of technology.

Reach out to me if you are interested in connecting and building real relationships with someone who actually cares and shows up.
