About Us

Hello, I’m David — the dad behind Wyrd Story.

On December 13th, 2024, I became a first-time father to twins, Theo and Chloe. There’s really no non-cliché way to say it: life completely changed.

One night on baby-watch, I surprised my wife with an art history book featuring the twins as famous works of art. She loved it. So did our parents. In fact, the reaction was so strong that I thought: maybe other families would enjoy this too. That’s when Wyrd Story was born.

Before this, I co-founded Hilokal, an AI language tutor company. But once Theo and Chloe arrived, I wanted to build something more personal — something that brought together my love for art, AI, and family.

Wyrd Story became that project. It’s part keepsake, part conversation starter, and part playful way to imagine the futures we see in our kids. Around the dinner table, my wife and I would joke with the grandparents about who Theo or Chloe might grow up to be. Who’s more likely to backpack across Europe? Who’s destined to win an argument at family dinner? Wyrd Story captures that spirit — celebrating the little glimpses of potential we see in our children.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope these books bring as much joy to your family as creating them has brought to mine.
