What
I back extraordinary entrepreneurs who see things differently.
How
I believe the best companies emerge as category-of-one, redefine the language of their sector, and often arise from the discovery of uncomfortable truths about the way we live, work, experience, or interact. I like weird stuff, and am interested in all spaces from birth to death. If the investment 'makes sense' to most, then I am likely not interested—great opportunities are by definition inconvenient and so I'm not surprised if there are 'warts' to the opportunity.
Why
I believe in accelerating the shift toward a win-win consciousness in business. I believe the future is not yet written and that we can change the world for the better. I believe that the returns of the future will go to those who create greater abundance for all.
Me
I previously worked with transformative leaders at SYPartners, led Customer Experience at Oyster (acq. Google), built Communities and led GTM Strategy at Google. I believe how I show up in the world matters and I invite others to hold me accountable to my standard.
