About Me

Welcome! I’m Liv. I spent over decade at the poker tables trying to figure out how we humans make decisions under pressure. After many wins and losses, I realized the games we play at the poker table are just mini, controlled versions of the much scarier gambles we’re taking with our planet and future. I’ve since traded poker chips for the podcast mic, where I spend my time exploring new solutions to our biggest systemic problems. If you're interested in AI, game-theory, philosophy and risk, you'll probably enjoy my stuff.

I used to play poker professionally. Now I’m a researcher and educator focussed on finding win-win solutions to seemingly impossible social dilemmas. If you like games, crazy thought experiments, philosophy and systems design, you’ll probably like my stuff.
