Who I am
-
Truth-seeking and curiousDeveloping strong epistemics is very important to me. I love researching topics after discussions and sharing what I've learned. I value when my partner does the same and want to build this together.
-
Direct and honestI say what I mean and value clear communication.
-
AffectionateI love cuddling and physical closeness.
-
Impact-orientedCommitted to effective altruism since 2012 (took the GWWC pledge in 2019).
-
Cautiously optimistic about AII think AI will transform the world dramatically soon, which motivates me to shape positive change AND find a partner to experience this unprecedented transformation with.
-
Extroverted on balanceI go to professional events in DC and enjoy meeting people, though I also love cozy time at home with my partner.
-
Thoughtful about decisionsI like optimizing choices with data and analysis.
-
Politically liberalDare I say neoliberal? (was once in the shill bracket)
-
OnlineI learn from and engage with the economic policy, EA, AI, and YIMBY communities on X, and as a result sometimes end up slipping into memery.
-
Animal-lovingGrew up with cats and dogs, had a cat in an earlier relationship, frequently dogsit a friend's pomsky in DC. Would like to get a dog in the next year or so (first project with a partner??).
-
Car-freeMostly get around on Capital Bikeshare (was once a top 10 Bike Angel!), Veo scooters, and walking.
What I do
I founded and run an international nonprofit building open source economic simulation software. We have DC headquarters, London staff, and some remote team members.
I'm passionate about our mission to democratize evidence-based policy and feel extremely lucky professionally. My work currently requires me traveling 1-2x a month and attending work events 1-2 evenings per week; I also have a flexible schedule and make time for what matters.

What I'm looking for
I want someone who wants kids, is kind and emotionally mature, and has work they feel makes a positive impact on the world.
I value learning from my partner - not just in side conversations, but being genuinely inspired by and curious about your work, and having you be curious about mine. I want us to teach each other about the world.
I have a big moral circle and hope you do too - I care about the wellbeing of humans, animals, and future beings.
