About

“I’ve weathered my share of booms and bust cycles, taken a company I co-founded public and had sleepless nights before I had to lay people off. I know the excitement and loneliness that founders feel on a weekly basis. I do my best to translate those experiences into advice, and in doing so, I try to provide two things: my unvarnished opinion and my unwavering support. I’ll tell you what I think, but recognize that I’m just one data point — and that great companies are built by great founders, not great investors. I think it’s often more important to ask a founder the right question than to give the founder the right answer.”
