Inspiring win-wins between people, business & our Earth.
Welcome!
I’m Elvir, a lifelong
entrepreneur & activist.
I’ve taught in the Ivy League, made deals on Wall Street, and spearheaded innovation in Silicon Valley. I’ve also sat in ceremony with wisdom-keepers and fasted on the Mountain. I’ve been a man without a country for most of my life, but feel at home in all these lives.
I am on a personal mission to refresh everyone’s memory of the deep ecology between all our worlds - and seek ways to bring them together. In a good way.
Lately, many of us have been doing the math a bit wrong. We’re sti like its finite, and treating our Earth like it’s infinite. These historic times demand going beyond smart, to wise.
As a father of four, former Yale math prof, and recently a global ‘Top 40 Market Maker’ in my field, I specialize in the divine math of win-wins at home and at work. I am learning about reciprocity with each other and our Earth as the way forward - and am excited to share the lessons I am learning with you.
