Biography

I wanted to do good with my career, but I couldn't find any good advice on how to have a big social impact. So I co-founded 80,000 Hours, which advises talented young graduates on how to choose a career with social impact. In four years, we've grown from a student society at Oxford, to a non-profit that's raised $1.3m, been through Y Combinator, and has a career guide with 100,000 monthly readers. We also helped to start the effective altruism movement. I have a masters in Physics and Philosophy from Oxford, and speak Chinese, badly.
