About Chris Lakin
I spend most of my time with founders, doing research, and with my gf.
In my spare time, I host weird events, matchmake my friends, and try intuitive health experiments.
Previously, I worked on boundaries for AI alignment, a metascience non-profit, and physics at Carnegie Mellon.

Story
I used to be anxious, insecure, romantically validation-seeking, overwhelmed by emotions, avoidant, depressed, in chronic pain, etc. I unlearned it. Then I wondered: “How could’ve it been 10x easier?”
