I enjoy building environments and technology that create community. I believe most of us are inherently shy but also appreciate the opportunity to meet interesting people. Community is where great friendships are made and where together we solve problems. I have operated my small international hostel for 20 years and also have a homestay for students visiting San Francisco. I'm a huge proponent of collaborative consumption and the sharing economy. We have too much stuff on the planet and stuff is not making us happy. Sharing fosters community and I like that. Finally, I believe in the electrification of transportation. Electricity is the only fuel that has the potential to be both sustainable and scalable to meet the energy needs of the planet. I look forward to meeting you.
