investing
I continue to support the startup ecosystem by angel investing in a few companies each year, predominantly in the software and AI spaces. I really enjoy problem solving with founders who think about problem spaces I don't spend my day to day thinking about.
If you want to chat about investing:
I'm always excited to connect with founders building high craft products. I've generally found that the best way to reach out to me is through a warm intro. If you are able to share what problem you are solving and what unique experience or insight you have that akes you positioned well to tackle the problem space, that will help me develop my own perspectives before we connect.
