Real feedback comes from free markets and nature (Naval Ravikant)

I’m an independent trader and organizational psychologist (PhD, Columbia). After several years building analytics and measurement systems in crypto communities and early-stage startups, I’ve shifted my focus toward systematic discretionary trading. My approach is consistency-first execution, disciplined testing, and data-driven feedback loops. I am building trading tools (trading journals for performance review, position size calculators, market context dashboards), with a focus on: underwriting risk, improving decision quality under uncertainty, and compounding over time.

Markets I’m most familiar with are crypto assets, but increasingly find myself trading onchain commodities, equities and indices.

Additionally, I work on organiational capability-building, cross-sector coordination, and accountability systems that can be measured and verified. I am returning to Thammasat University to teach Sustainable Organization Management for the MA in Social Innovation & Sustainability program (spring 2027) at the School of Global Studies.

Alongside trading and teaching, I do AI bricolage, muay thai and meditation.

I’m based in Bangkok with my wife and our six year old twins.
