Educator · Designer · Builder

I build learning products that teach people how to think. Grounded in first principles and driven by curiosity.

For 15 years I've been designing how people learn — from building K-12 ICT curricula used in 200+ schools by over 200,000 students worldwide, to running digital literacy programs for senior citizens.

Today I'm building Lernok, an edtech platform that teaches kids to become builders using first-principles thinking, preparing them for an AI-native world.

Outside of work, I play chess, read obsessively, do street photography with my Fujifilm cameras, and explore ideas across disciplines.

Guiding Principle

Good education should start with first principles, where fundamentals come before tools. It should encourage curiosity and experimentation, connect ideas to real-world problems, and stay accessible to anyone willing to learn.
