Hi! I'm Sameer.

I spend my days as a PM at Affirm (prev at Twitter). Lately, I've been focused on card payments at Affirm -- a topic I find pretty fascinating.

This site hosts all my hacky side projects, with my writing on whatever is top of mind.

A few things I'm into right now:

  • Into biographies at the moment — reading Churchill's The Splendid and the Vile and Steve Jobs in Exile
  • If you're interested in my other book notes, you can see the notes here
  • Currently fascinated by the AI hardware stack -- energy, chips, and the strategy behind it all
  • il:lo and James Blake on repeat, 20+ years Chelsea fan, based in LA and happiest when traveling
