A little late but never too late to say that April was a great month for me. Lots of recognition and love from family and friends and colleagues. World of a difference where I was a while ago. Just goes to show that the work in the trenches never goes unnoticed. Just need to keep working on what I believe is the best and the rest follows.

2024 was an adventure, but 2025 is going to be next level! 🏃‍♂️ Grateful for my family, friends, and community as I gear up for new journeys: bigger fitness challenges and fresh content on Web3, gaming, fitness, AI, and beyond.

Oh, and don’t forget my book The True Understanding of HODL—out now on Kindle internationally! 📚

Cheers to leveling up together in 2025. Let’s make it epic. Happy New Year, everyone! 🎉💪

I am Still trying to be the very best.

Caught this little Pikachu a little over a year ago. The real test is to teach her and in the same journey she is teaching me. The Snorlax was a huge help and giving us patience on this journey we are taking.

What an amazing weekend.

What an incredible weekend! I had the privilege of attending a master class with , a trailblazer in personal growth and fitness. It was all about mastering yourself and your business to reach your full potential. It made me reflect on my own personal growth and inspired me to keep pushing forward. If you haven’t heard of him yet, you’re missing out. Seriously, check him out.

Next, I caught up with my good friend Xiaochen from at a roundtable about AI responsibility with the ai2030 project. We discussed crucial topics like the sources of information and the energy consumed by AI computations. Fascinating stuff.

And finally, the best part of the weekend: celebrating my 2nd wedding anniversary with my wife, best friend, and wonderful mother . We revisited the place where we said “I do” and spent a memorable night in downtown Charlottesville, introducing our daughter to some of our favorite spots. It was truly a weekend to remember.
