Two cities, one conversation.

I want a working connection to the people building AI software — in San Jose and in Tel Aviv.

The most useful version of my work happens close to the people building the tools: comparing notes, testing ideas in the open, and finding collaborators for the problems worth years of attention. This page is an open invitation to both communities.

San Jose

37.34° N · 121.89° W

Home ground in Silicon Valley — a community I want to engage deliberately, not just live in.

Tel Aviv

32.08° N · 34.78° E

A dense, fast-moving technical culture I want to know as a peer, not a visitor.

Possibilities, not promises

What I’d like to build

01

Agentic tools for systems engineering

02

Evaluation and verification for AI-built software

03

Developer tools people keep using after the demo

04

AI products informed by safety-critical practice

05

Open-source libraries, skills, and reference systems

06

Small, serious teams around hard problems

The kinds of people I’d like to engage with
