Attorney. Mathematician. Performer. Available to teach at the college and independent high school level — full-time, part-time, or substitute. My credentials are real, my classroom presence is high-energy, and I am available now.
AI was the software story. Robotics is the physical economy story. I track the companies, technologies, and market structure behind the rise of physical AI: humanoids, drones, industrial automation, and the suppliers building the next decade of the real-world economy.
Goldman Sachs projects humanoid robots could reach a $38B market by 2035. Morgan Stanley models a path to $5 trillion by 2050. The most investable opportunities may not be the headline humanoid companies — they may be the boring suppliers who win regardless of which robot body prevails.
Understanding this transformation is not only a matter of finance and technology — it is one of the most important educational challenges of our time. The sociology of technology, and the sociology of the future, belong at the center of university curricula. Students who will spend their careers in a world reshaped by humanoid robots — in warehouses, hospitals, schools, construction sites, and homes — need frameworks to anticipate, interpret, and operate within that world. That means understanding not just which companies exist and what their robots do today, but how robotic deployment reshapes labor, power, urban design, legal systems, and social organization at scale. This is the kind of multi-decade, world-scale social transformation that universities exist to help people think clearly about — and it is what I aim to teach: the finance, the sociology, and the future, together.
Every company gets classified against a deployment ladder:
Robotic construction promises a 100× productivity leap in how cities are built — making it possible to create entirely new urban environments with dramatically better quality of life, at a fraction of current cost and time. When robots can build cities, the question of where and how humanity lives becomes an open question again for the first time in centuries. Principle City is the long-horizon thesis on what that means.
