Bio

(Ex?)-scientist now lawyer at a certain silicon valley law firm practicing IP / Patent / Corp / VC law. Interested in legitimate biotech, biohacking (not supplement bullshit), tech, digital assets, crypto, anarchism, psychedelics, VC, economics, and the evolving human condition. Trying to move back to Saint Louis, MO in 15 years.

Ph.D. and post-doc research focused on neuropsychopharmacology, especially in schizophrenia, autism, bipolar, Pitt-Hopkins syndrome, and ENS disorders (IBS, scleroderma). Former wannabe medicinal chemist, decent single-channel patch clamper, and of course all the basic stuff like CRISPR gene editing and animal surgery.

Ph.D. Johns Hopkins Med
J.D. Berkeley Law
B.S. University of Missouri (M-I-Z!)

Intellectual property meets political philosophy buff. Looking for ways to abolish copyright and patents for new business model paradigms.

Started 3 biotechs and a real estate investment firm (phase 1 clinical trials this year 🤞).

Always thinking about creative uses of biotechnology.
