Profilei.
A monk, a physicist, or a hedge fund manager. As a kid, those are the things I said I wanted to be when I grew up. I love to learn, explore, and invest. I've been on the podium of the NYSE and slept on a clay floor at the Kumbh Mela. I founded a venture firm and I got licensed as a pro scuba diver. I love being, and I love doing. I am an enjoyer of contradiction.
