Investor. Team builder. Partner at Menlo Ventures.
I'm passionate about entrepreneurship. I have always gravitated to small projects and highly motivated teams working on cutting edge new projects. Having started my career in the early nineties, I've witnessed multiple technology shifts and economic cycles in the Venture Capital industry. I've learned that great companies take patience to build and I've developed an enormous respect for the founders who have the courage and tenacity to make their dreams into realities.
