My life has always been about challenging—and beating—the odds.

  • Ranked #9 Worldwide in competitive gaming—mastering complex systems under pressure
  • Professional Poker Player—calculated risk management at the highest levels

  • Founded multiple startups in Healthcare and AI—building tools that solve real problems

Then, My World Was Shattered

I discovered I carry two copies of the APOE4 gene—a rare genetic variant affecting just 1% of the global population, increasing my risk of Alzheimer's by up to 33 times.

Statistically, these odds suggest Alzheimer's disease is inevitable for me.

During my hospital residency in France's top geriatric units, I saw the brutal realities of Alzheimer's firsthand—patients losing memories, independence, even sanity, slowly fading into isolation and despair.

The Turning Point

I had two paths forward:

Passive Management

Wait for symptoms. Hope for the best.

Active Optimization

Use everything I know to change the trajectory.

I chose to take full ownership of my health.

Why I Built Phoenix

I'm not just researching APOE4—I'm living it. As a Doctor of Pharmacy who worked on Alzheimer's drug launches at major consulting firms and watched dementia unfold during my hospital residency, I understand this disease from every angle: molecular, clinical, and deeply personal.

Every week, I spend 8+ hours reading papers, cross-referencing dosages, and distilling findings into one clear protocol—one I follow myself and share with 3,100+ APOE4 carriers.

Phoenix exists because I needed it to exist. And so do you.

My Mission

Beat the odds and defeat Alzheimer's.

Not someday. Not with a miracle drug. With evidence-based action, starting now.

Your Next Step

One study per week, distilled into one action step you can start the same day — the same protocols I follow myself.
