What I’m Focused On Now

On this page are the things I’m working on these days.

Last Updated December 2025

Irreplaceable

Irreplaceable is an education platform teaching students and young professionals the human skills that make them stand out in an AI-first world.

I’ve been speaking to and teaching thousands of students internationally, writing about the future of work, and scaling the program to reach more people.

Austin Capital

I continue to lead Austin Capital, a single-family office focused on operating, incubating, and investing in fintech and financial services companies.

Current investments and operating companies include Spec Fi, Fintech Automation, Unifi, Austin Capital Trust, Modern Rails, DevBase and many others.

We’re currently investing in community banks along with starting our own Credit Union.

Commonground

Commonground our farmland leasing marketplace with embedded crop insurance.

We’re working on building tools that make farmland leasing and insuring more accessible and transparent.

Building Communities

Bringing people together is still my favorite thing to do.

  • Outcove: our invite-only retreat for founders and investors, described as Allen & Co meets Burning Man. We hosted gatherings in Utah and Hawaii this year and continue to expand the community.
  • Outcove One: an invite only retreat specifically for family offices.
  • Weekend of Man: a highly vetted adult “summer camp” focused on pushing yourself through epic challenges and personal growth.
