Bio: Patri Friedman

Patri Friedman is your everyday purple-haired anarcho-capitalist computer nerd. He is interested in the usual mish-mash of cyberlibertarian topics - economics, politics, crypto, biology, math psychology, life extension and so forth. He passionately desires to live someplace with both freedom and community, and since there doesn't seem to be one yet, has a great deal of interest in the nation founding movement.

Patri's professional activities include tech consulting and high-stakes poker. He has a BS in math from Harvey Mudd College, and most of an MS in CS from Stanford. He is a California/National certified EMT Basic, and a Wilderness First Responder, thanks to WMI at NOLS, which he highly recommends.

Patri keeps a more extensive online journal on his website. He plans to run screaming from the USA in approximately 2-4 years, and is slowly planning his departure.
