[ writing, books, linkedin ]

Operating

  • - I co-founded an ML infra/tooling company, Ensemble AI. We raised money from Salesforce Ventures, M13, Motivate Venture Capital, and others.

Investing

  • - I occasionally write/syndicate early-stage checks (typically < $250k) into all kinds of startups.
  • - I especially like to meet and invest in "weird" startups — companies other investors might consider too early, too boring, too technical, etc.

Projects

  • - I'm writing a book about building & maintaining accountability in company cultures with my Dad.
  • - SigNote: A tool to track + trigger action on uncertain or loosely defined events that require the user to act, but cannot be scheduled reliably in advance (such as ticket releases and IPO filings) as they surface in real-time.

Books I like to recommend

  • - The Great CEO Within by Matt Mochary
  • - Venture Deals by Brad Feld & Jason Mendelson
  • - Boyd by Robert Coram
  • - Games People Play by Eric Berne
  • - The Laws of Human Nature by Robert Greene
