Joined Sol Bier (founding eng at Cruise) as a Partner, backing visionary entrepreneurs and generational companies. Opportunistically writing angel checks as well.

Co-head, founding member, and IC of D. E. Shaw's private venture and growth investing arm. Built fund infrastructure from scratch and deployed the first few investments in that strategy with some phenomenal people at the firm.

Cut my teeth as an investor in Summit's venture fund focused on capital efficient growers, often in vertical software markets. Led a few and co-invested across 40+ companies.

Focused on M&A and other strategies at Evercore and J.P. Morgan in NYC. Prior to that, my first paid job was an event coordinator and professional coach... ask me about driving U-Hauls full of audiovisual equipment around Las Vegas.
