Gage Weston

EA Austin president & founder | Economics student at UT Austin

Economics major at UT Austin class of 2022. I founded and do the majority of the organizing for EA Austin which represents both UT and the city of Austin. Summer 2021 I wrote a few episodes for A Happier World (http://bit.ly/hwythome), an EA-related Youtube channel. I am primarily considering careers either in promoting EA, such as through mass outreach (e.g. Youtube), local community building and targeted outreach (e.g. Founder's Pledge), and/or in global priorities research, such as getting a PhD in econ and working in academia or for an EA org. I'm very interested in economics, psychology, philosophy, and self-improvement. I love meeting other EA's so hit me up at gagemweston@gmail.com if you ever want to chat! (I might not see EA hub messages)
