I'm joining Lighthouse

Career update: I’m joining Lighthouse as Go to Market lead!

Lighthouse is the fastest immigration solution for the startup and technology industry. Our mission is to help the world's talent build their biggest ambitions in the U.S. and accelerate emerging technologies by making visa preparation fast and accessible.

High-skilled immigration is a flywheel that benefits both the US and the world’s top talent. This is great for the world. And US immigration services can be a lot better than they are now.

I’ve heard stories from multiple friends who have spent frustrating months going back and forth with unresponsive immigration consultancies. These are people who went to places like MIT and Stanford and who should be focused on building, not stressful immigration paperwork.

Lighthouse gives consistently fast, great experience to founders and critical tech workers so that they can focus on building the great companies of tomorrow.

If you or someone you know needs support on your immigration journey, let me know!

Which presidents were born closer to Lincoln's presidency than to their own?

When Joe Biden was born, America was closer to Lincoln’s presidency than to Biden’s presidency.

The man is very very old.

Upon learning this fact, I (and I assume all of you) wondered: For which other presidents is this true?

In fact, there have only been 6 presidents since Lincoln who were born closer to their own presidencies than to Lincoln’s (1).

It is unlikely that get another president born closer to Lincoln than their own presidency. The only remote possibilities (based on 2 minutes of googling) would be if Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren became president. We are truly moving into a post-Lincoln era.

1. Of course, everyone who was president before Lincoln was born closer to their own presidency than to Lincoln’s. And for Lincoln himself, the question is undefined.
