We Have What We Want
The intersection of our self-given narratives to our lives avoiding confrontation with the secret desires of our shadow self finds a strange armistice in our minds. And that is ok.

Vicissitudes
If our baseline narrative is 100% successful, one bad moment may seemingly deem the rest of the progress—the integral—irrelevant and worthless. I think this mindset is often a helpful propellant. But I’d like to get past that way of thinking. Life isn’t this binary.

Societal Fear of Technology
People conceptualize a lot of technology innovation today from what they read about in books and watch in TV/Cinema. But I think they only tell a small part of the story of how the inputs we receive influence our thoughts on the future of technology.

Paradoxes in Privacy, War, and Life
At Footprint, we believe that privacy means the freedom to control where your data goes. We think privacy means not needing to share your PII to create accounts, but we think your data should still exist, and its footprint should grow in a trusted account you control.

Trust and Transparency
We want to build a company that resurrects the faith users once had that the internet works for, not against, us. Footprint can change the relationship we currently have with the digital age.
