About

Dan Thomson

I'm a philosopher turned entrepreneur, an explorer of both ideas and continents, and someone who believes technology should serve humanity's highest aspirations.

Based in Mexico City ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฝ ยท British by birth ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง ยท INTJ

Speaks English, Spanish, and Portuguese

Currently, I lead Sensay, where we're pioneering digital immortality through AI - preserving human knowledge, personality, and wisdom for future generations.

Philosophy

On Technology

Technology should amplify what makes us human, not replace it. Digital immortality isn't about escaping death - it's about extending the impact of a human life.

On Adventure

Comfort is the enemy of growth. I've trekked to Everest Base Camp and explored Antarctica because growth happens at the edges.

On Freedom

Freedom isn't just political or financial - it's intellectual and creative. I build companies that give people more control over their lives and legacies.
