I've been inspired by Samay's thoughtfulness, drive, and energy — not to mention technical rigor — for many years. Excited to get to work more closely and learn from all that Samay @ the Holdings team create!. They're hiring engineers :-).
I am excited to share that I have joined the founding team at Thrive Holdings (@ThriveCapital) to help build exceptional businesses designed to compound over many decades.

More than productivity or AI or startups, the people I love having in my life and who inspire me create with the belief that technology is shaped by humans for humans, and that human touch is everything. Very happy & excited to see @SarvasvKulpati continue to build his vision🌈.
Excited to share that I've raised $2m for Origami Computing led by @lachygroom and an amazing set of investors/angels like @MattHartman, @akothari, and more. We're making fun, colorful computers that help you stay present and become who you want to be.
