It seems strange that, though this square is almost totally silent—not a car and barely a person in sight—I am metres away from hundreds of people, mostly very unwell, lying or sleeping silently in their beds. Most of humanity, and most phases of our lives, are so loud and violent that it seems eerie that so many people could so resign themselves to silence.

Currently CTO at Mast. Formerly engineering at Thought Machine, Pivotal. Makers Academy alumnus.

I've pledged to give 10% of my income to highly effective charities working to improve animal welfare. If my startup is successful, I hope to give away much more.

Also founded EA Work Club, a job board for effective altruists, and Let's Fund, a crowdfunding site for high-risk, high-reward social impact projects.
