I'm the founder of Conway. We're training models for companies, starting with one of the most pressing problems in the F500: Financial crime. Read more about Conway's motivations here. If you're interested in joining the team, reach out to my email.

Previously, I was the president of Prod, a non-profit accelerator. I'm now a board member. Our cohorts since 2021 are cumulatively worth $80B+. Contact me at anne [at] prod [dot] so if you're building something important and want to get involved.

Before that, I was an investigative journalist. I covered Massachusetts politics for POLITICO and unions for a local paper in New York. I wrote for and later managed a weekly student newspaper in New Hampshire.

I've also done some investing at Andreessen Horowitz on the crypto team, research with Jonathan Zittrain and Sven Beckert, and studied computer science (and physics, neuroscience, and philosophy) at Harvard.
