Hi,
I’m Shane Parrish.
While I have a deep dislike of bios, it’s only fair that you know something about me. I spent ██ years working for a three-letter intelligence agency, starting as a ██████ and ending in charge of ████████████████. During my career, I was promoted ██ times, worked as ██████████████████ to the Deputy Minister, ██████████████████, and ██████████████████. Unfortunately, I can’t talk about anything interesting without going to jail.
If you’d like more insight into my background and FS, read the New York Times profile.
You can follow me on Twitter and Instagram.
Nothing happens in isolation; let me introduce you to our small team.
