He questions the policies, assumptions, and failures that undermine our nation’s national security strategy, interrogates the lessons of the geopolitical past, and attempts to shape our understanding of the technological future.
He approaches his work by combining interdisciplinary research methodologies with a strategic mindset, chiefly analyzing political and economic impacts, and, more broadly, the human, cultural, and technological factors that influence outcomes in complex systems. Read his MO.
He is currently a student at Northeastern University, a candidate for an interdisciplinary Bachelors of Science in business, public policy, design, history, and Middle Eastern studies. He is slated to graduate in Fall 2026.
In Summer 2025, he will spend a semester abroad at the London School of Economics studying the international political economy. He would love to meet friends in London, or nearby cities (or nations) :)
His wide-ranging skillset, even wider-ranging passions, interdisciplinary mindset, and deep desire to learn position him well for a variety of roles across growth, policy, product, design, and operations. He’s passionate about contributing to impactful work with intelligent systems, national security, public policy, or international development. Contact him with opportunities.
