Benjamin Todd is the founder and president of 80,000 Hours. Dissatisfied with the career advice he received at university, he began researching the guidance he wished he’d had. Over the next ten years, he grew 80,000 Hours from a student society in Oxford into a non-profit with millions of readers that’s been covered in the Financial Times, Guardian, Wall Street Journal and BBC News.

Benjamin holds a Master’s degree in Physics and Philosophy from Oxford, and speaks Chinese, badly.
