About

I'm a writer who makes YouTube videos about the crossover of health, technology and art.

My writing is like the voice in your head found a typewriter.

My videos are like a Spartan warrior learned to code.

I teach machine learning at the Zero to Mastery Academy.

My (current) mission is to use AI to help people move more and eat better (though this may be a case of "if you have a hammer... everything looks like a nail").

My ikigai (Japanese word for "reason for being") is learning to create and creating to learn.

In light of the above, I try to embarass myself every year by refleting on what I've learned: see 23, 24, 25, 26, 27.

I'm very excited for 2021.

I've been a machine learning engineer at Max Kelsen, Uber Driver, Genius at Apple, fitness coach and men's physique competitor in that order.

In 2017, I decided to start teaching myself to code, with a focus on machine learning and artificial intelligence via my self-created Artificial Intelligence Masters Degree.

My writing is available on Medium, Quora and here.

Every month or so, I send out a newsletter called Eat, Move, Learn, Make detailing my work. Why Eat, Move, Learn, Make? These are the things I like doing most.

I've done a handful of podcasts and interviews with others.

Making and movement are two non-negotiable daily rituals for me.

@mrdbourke is my handle on Twitter.

ENFP (disclaimer: I did this test once and have since become skeptical of it).

Brisbane has been my home town my whole life, I love it here. But when international travel opens back up, I'm going to go on an adventure.

Here's what I'm up to now.
