Thank you for having me.

You know, when I say my background is in big data, you know, I was a mortality expert or researcher for large life insurance. And we used big data to very accurately predict life expectancy trends. I mean, to the point where large life insurance companies were willing to put tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars in risk on somebody's life based on the modeling that we did.

And what I find fascinating about your background, besides the fact that you're an amazingly accomplished athlete, incredibly accomplished coach, and a brilliant scientist, is that I was watching some podcasts that you were on before. And you were talking about your career in coaching and how...

everything that you were doing on the field and everything that you were doing to prepare these athletes for the game had nothing to do with how they were going to show up the next morning.

And it was kind of maybe that realization, right, that we're exercising these athletes and we're training them, we're strength training them and we're training for different positions and we've gotten really good at speed and agility and timing and strength and coordination, but it had no predictability to how that athlete was going to show up the next day.

Yeah, it was definitely like the epiphany, you know, when we started, um, you know, having lots of different types of technology that we could measure, you know, what was happening, the adaptation during a training session, you know, and really I was in an Ivy league school. We only had the athletes for at Princeton. We only had the athletes for a couple hours.

Um, and I think we just over indexed on, um, what those two hours were actually doing to the athletes. And, you know, we had internal load, we'd external load, we had some, you know, subjective markers. Right.
