Now

What I'm actually doing right now.

This page is a snapshot, not a résumé. It's what I'm actually spending time on right now, and it goes stale the moment I stop updating it.
Last updated August 14, 2026

Building

  • Payments work across the operating businesses — the unglamorous middle of it: underwriting, risk, and keeping merchants live. What I'm building
  • One new thing that is too early to name, which is usually a good sign.

Thinking About

  • Why the most durable businesses look boring from the outside. Read the essay
  • Whether the best rooms are designed or just repeatedly shown up for.

Learning

  • Music production. Specifically: finishing things instead of collecting half-tracks.

Reading

  • One business book and one novel at the same time, which is the only way I finish either.
  • Something on Jewish thought I have read before and clearly did not finish understanding.

Listening To

  • Country-EDM edits in progress, plus whatever came out of the last set that refuses to leave my head. Music

Training

  • A strength block. Boring, repeatable, six days a week when travel allows.

Travel

Austin

  • Getting people who should already know each other into the same room in Austin. Community

Community

Music

  • Studio time between shows, and building sets around the guitar rather than bolting it on. Music

Experiments

  • Phone in another room after 9pm. Roughly a 60% success rate.
  • Writing more in public. Ideas

Inspired by the /now page convention — a public answer to “what are you focused on at this point in your life?” If something here looks out of date, it probably is. Tell me.
