I'm building Verified, where we help the world's best companies instantly onboard millions of Americans with 1-click signup. Our mission: help real people thrive in an age of AI. Everyone's thinking about AI, but we're thinking about what AI makes necessary.

I dropped out of Stanford to build companies with my brother. We built Be Heard to combat online fraud in political outreach, then Unum ID with backing from Tim Draper and Samsung. Building companies is like chewing glass and staring into the abyss, but I'm addicted to the challenge.

Ask me about identity verification, building in the age of AI, dropping out of Stanford, and what I learned from Be Heard and Unum ID.
