Founded Aethra around a single belief: that the most important problems do not belong to any one field. Established its initial infrastructure and departments, and has scaled Aethra since, growing it from its founding year into a running organisation with a track record of events, participants, and prizes. His own research kept pulling him across disciplines, from AI to biology to mathematics, and he wanted to build a space where other people could experience that same pull. Focused on convergence research and building the long-term infrastructure that serious interdisciplinary science needs.
Led Aethra through its founding year. Shaped the identity of the organisation, established the departments and infrastructure, and ran the first 6 events (Hackathon, Ideathon, Pitchathon, Vibeathon, Gamethon, and Brandathon) from conception through execution. No longer associated with Aethra.
