Hey! So Glad You're Here.

Co-Founder & Partner at Underscore VC, a venture fund that manages $245M across three funds. Within that partnership, I am specifically focused on helping earliest stage founders in crypto build great companies, protocols, and DAOS.

 

Previously, I was a programmer (turned entrepreneur (turned VC)), and to this day, I still enjoy digging in alongside founders to help them realize their vision through thoughtful company building.

​

Way further back, I started my career as a quant at Goldman Sachs, was a developer on the team that started Apple iTunes, and also built out a skunkworks team that launched the D2C E-commerce Business at Procter & Gamble. Following that, I was a founder of a machine learning startup to mine insights from social media for brands which we sold two years later. Moreover, I spent the first part of my venture career at Founder Collective before founding Underscore VC.

​

I graduated from Harvard Business School (MBA), and Cornell University (Masters in Engineering with highest distinction & Bachelor of Science in Engineering with distinction).
