Hi, I’m Mark. I’m an entrepreneur in Silicon Valley. I love startups, angel investing, hiking, yoga, board games, the Wyattpup, and good conversations with good friends.

I’m passionate about how psychedelic therapy and technology generally can improve the world, especially AI. I most recently led AI product teams at Google and advised founders at 500 Startups, StartX, and Village Global. I publish startup guides on VentureKit to help founders get things done.

At Stanford, I studied neuroscience, started the squash team, and did four years of brain research on lucid dreaming. I finished my coursework but dropped out twice for startups. No degree yet since gym and library access are better than a diploma. 🙂
