Hello, I’m Ethan.

Born and raised in the Bay Area, I learned consistency, resilience, and high standards through competitive swimming. That journey eventually led me to the U.S. Olympic Trials, where I finished 38th nationally in my event. At the same time, I was pursuing a B.S. in Computer Science at Stanford University, where I discovered a curiosity that extended well beyond software.

College became an opportunity to explore different worlds. I found myself moving between engineering, entrepreneurship, venture capital, hospitality, and business, learning how each discipline approaches problems from a different perspective. Over time, I've worked as a software engineer, venture researcher, and fine dining professional. While the roles have varied, the common thread has remained the same: building thoughtful solutions, sweating the details, and creating experiences people genuinely enjoy.

When I’m not working, you'll usually find me with a book, wandering somewhere I've never been before, or taking photos.

All with a trusty cup of coffee in hand.
