Interspace was formed as a way to explore the space between objects in the financial ecosystem to better understand and explain the financial technology behind the financial services we use every day. I started writing because I found that while many concepts around financial services, money movement and fintech infrastructure were known to operators, it wasn’t accessible to the rest of the ecosystem stakeholders.
I’ve since expanded my focus to cover not just fintech but strategic finance, technology, artificial intelligence and everything in between. I use data-driven insights, operate on first principles and tend to approach things from a beginner’s mindset but with strong opinions, weakly held.
I’m starting to think more about how I increase my contribution to and expansion of the community around Interspace that has helped me grow, provided feedback and shared my writings. If you have ideas or want to contribute, I’m always open to brainstorm.
