She is also an entrepreneur who has served multiple founding executive roles. Her ventures include co-founding LOVE, a London-based Generative AI communication platform, Chronicled, a San Francisco-based blockchain company focused on bringing trust to global commerce and supply chains, two companies leveraging AI to map personal taste, and lastly Radical Next, a meta-media studio that creates transformative stories, experiences, and media productions across traditional fields of study. Sam is also the author of the #1 Best Seller Bitcoin Pizza: The No Bullshit Guide to Blockchain. Occasionally, she contributes as a writer to Forbes. True to her “Rad” name, Sam is even a competitive skydiver with over 700 jumps. Undeniably, “Sam Rad” has one of the most unique backgrounds in the industry.
Additionally, Sam holds several patents linking the physical and digital worlds and is considered a pioneer in Applied Cryptography, Blockchain systems, Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, Immersive Realities, and Simulations. Moreover, she is noted as inventing the protocols that led to ERC-721 or Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). In 2017, she was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list for Enterprise Technology.
Sam was trained in anthropology, engineering, and symbolic systems, studying simulated and immersive realities. Unsurprisingly, because of her unique background, she has worked with a range of frontier technologies, indigenous and emerging social structures, people, places, and practices. She refers to herself as an “archaeologist of the future,” applying the traditional anthropological approach of ethnography to envision future possibilities.
A small shard of pottery unlocks insight into past civilizations for a normal anthropologist.
