Venture Capital & Private Equity - San Francisco, California, United States
I invest, through Background Capital, in early stage startups with a path to becoming impactful, enduring companies. I am solely backed by top founders, executives, and super connectors - this is to create a multiplier on my own efforts to support the next wave of great founders. In a similar stage and manner to my angel fund's focus, I have previously been an early advisor to Instacart and Vurb (+10x acquisition by Snap) and a first round individual investor to Blockchain, Clearbit, Webflow, and Luxe (acquired by Volvo). I've lived this stage of the founder journey as an entrepreneur myself - I was fortunate to step into the investing world after my startup was acquired. Because this is now my full time profession and because I take the same dilution alongside the teams I back, I'm also the most aligned early stage individual investor for the founders I am lucky to invest in and support.
