Robert Tolan


I currently work in an investment fund in New York City. I am from Foxford, Co. Mayo, Ireland and have also lived in Dublin, London and Oslo.

I took a gap year to work on housing policy with the support of Tyler Cowen through his Emergent Ventures programme at the Mercatus Centre and from Entrepreneur First's Polaris Fellowship. During that year, I founded a housing policy think tank. I also spent time as a freelance contributor in The Economist's Britain section.

I enjoy doing projects and I am currently seeking new collaborators. I am interested in community building, urbanism and Progress Studies as well as LLMs. If any of this is of interest, please email.
