Life in Lists of 30

I love lists of 30.

It's how I analyze topics and think divergently. There's a list of 30 for everything.

I build tools I actually use.

That's the whole thesis.

Clemens the Lists of 30 Writer

I've written lists of 30 since around 2012. It's how I analyze topics and think divergently. A year-end review every year since 2008, two books so far, and a 30 under 30 I finished early.

Clemens the AI-Enabled Engineer

I'm a nerdy Cooper Union electrical engineering grad who studied AI in Osaka and Hamburg. I used to code. I still do, but I used to as well. Now I build tools I actually use, and I've written about every phase of it since 2022.

Public Speaking

I used to be horrified of public speaking. I still get butterflies, but I prepare a lot more.

Mentoring

I mentor because my mentors did. It's the best way I know to say thanks.
