About

My life's mission is to explore the intersection of art, technology, and psychology to create beautiful, useful solutions. I am building TimeAlign, a system that aligns your time with your goals. After I learned of my mom's terminal cancer, I reevaluated priorities, left my job, and developed the TimeAlign prototype. I used this early app to track my time throughout the entire year and schedule more quality time with my mom before it was too late. Since then, TimeAlign has evolved. It's the first app to close the feedback loop on time management so users can build goal-driven schedules and actually measure whether they are sticking to the plan. This deeper understanding enables a more balanced schedule and unlocks greater goal achievement.

Founders: What is one time management technique that you swear by?

I'll start:

I swear by goal-driven scheduling. This is the practice of scheduling based on your goals each week (as opposed to only scheduling meetings/appointments or by only scheduling off a task list).

What’s the best productivity tool that’s NOT Notion, Obsidian, or Roam?

Notion, Obsidian, and Roam are great, but they re not for everyone. Maybe you found something simpler, faster, or just less overwhelming. What s the one productivity tool you actually stick with the one that makes life easier instead of adding more work?

Founders: what is the biggest lesson you learned from PH launch #1 to launch #2?

Last time around we got 3rd of the day, 9th of the week, for our product TimeAlign.
This time, we are less interested in getting a badge, and more interested in getting people to try our free AI assistant called LifeAlign (turns goals into actionable plans scheduled on your calendar) and give us feedback!
