My focus is in solving 50 primal, first order problems by 2045. They will all be built using breakthrough technology that stretches the imagination. My goal is to help exceptional founders realize their highest ambitions.

I'm a VC & angel investor with 120+ deals done. My fund, Asymmetry Ventures, focuses on seed-stage deals. I also founded and currently manage an AngelList syndicate of 1600 accredited investors. Our syndicate deploys checks of $100K - $300K into exceptional early-stage ventures. I love deep tech (e.g. life sci/biotech; med devices & healthcare; AI; hardware & IoT). And in general, I love startups with strong early traction (ideally revenues - but user and usage traction are great too).
