Welcome!! I'm Joss. 😁
I'm currently spending most of my time building Wygo (stay tuned!), but am always open to chat about big ideas and opportunities related to community building, startups, walkable cities/urbanism, software/tech, and economics and incentives.
We will be great friends if you're kind, nerdy, and ambitious 😁 (in that order!). Bonus points if you have a track record of creating opportunities for the people around you and understand how important it is to centre inclusion and diverse representation in everything you do.
