About Us
Do something fun. Meet someone new.

Serendipity is simply random chance that plays in your favor. It's when you bump into someone new who is reading the same book, enjoying your favorite wine, or listening to the band you love.

A little over a year ago, a group of friends in Seattle decided that these chance encounters don't need to be so random or infrequent. They created Urbandipity, a website that enables you to find serendipity more often.

Urbandipity lets you quickly represent what you're about and meet people who like what you like. Simply create a post, tag your interests, and spark new connections. It's free and no account is necessary!

Our team:
Nick Talwar
Nick heads business development and marketing at Urbandipity. He graduated from Duke University with majors in biomedical and electrical engineering in 2008. With Urbandipity, he hopes to encourage Seattleites to go out and have fun while learning how to build a web company from the ground up. Nick is also our chef-in-residence and enjoys cooking gourmet meals at his condo for the rest of the Urbandipity team.
Hajime Furukawa
Hajime does a little bit of everything for us but tends to focus on operations, marketing, and software development. He graduated from Cornell University in 2008 with a B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering. Haji looks forward to collaborating on a startup in hopes of helping others navigate the adventures of the interwebs.
Ryan O'Donnell
Ryan is the jack-of-all-trades at Urbandipity: he works on the creative vision, product management, engineering, and makes sure there's always plenty of chips and salsa on hand. He graduated from Cornell University in 2008 with a concentration in biomedical engineering and computer science. Ryan splits his time between Seattle and Beijing while working on Urbandipity.
Dustin Conrad
Dustin is a software engineer for Urbandipity and works on integrating the frontend and backend together while also serving as a sounding board for Zach and Emmett. He graduated from the University of Washington with a bachelors degree in CS. Implementing the innovative ideas we have at Urbandipity helps him get his coding fix in, but of course it can never really be fully satisified.
