Casey Fenton has always seen possibilities where others see limitations. Growing up as a shy, conflict-avoiding kid in small-town Maine, he found early refuge in programming. Hidden behind his long hair in the back of the classroom, he learned to approach problems systematically, breaking down seemingly impossible challenges into manageable pieces of code. What he didn't realize then was that he was developing a framework that would eventually help millions transform their lives.

His first major identity hack came from a simple question: if he could debug computer code, why couldn't he debug his own patterns of behavior? This led to an audacious experiment – emailing 1,500 strangers in Iceland asking to stay in their homes. The overwhelming positive response didn't just challenge his assumptions about trust; it sparked a revelation about human potential.

This experiment grew into Couchsurfing, a platform that would touch the lives of over 20 million members worldwide. Casey watched as people everywhere proved that profound personal transformation isn't just possible – it's natural when supported by the right system and community. Travelers became local cultural ambassadors. Shy hosts became confident community leaders. Each success confirmed his growing theory: identity isn't fixed; it's programmable.

Recognized as an Ashoka Fellow for his contributions to human wellbeing, Casey has spent the past two decades refining his methodology for personal transformation. Through Upstock, he's reimagining how companies share success with employees. Through his forthcoming book "Ego Hackers," he's sharing his tested framework for personal reinvention, making profound transformation accessible to anyone ready to rewrite their own code.
