We are proudly vertical agnostic and anti-thematic. We like being surprised and love making contrarian bets. We target initial investments of $25k-$100k but will go as low as $10k if a round is oversubscribed. Why? If we love a founder, we want to be involved, and by being a great partner, who knows, perhaps we will earn the right to invest more in future rounds.

Broadly, I am interested in any business that have great teams working in very large markets. Typically I like to see them when they have a small number of users/customers that love the product (pre-seed/seed) and I prefer to commit to rounds early and help founders put together the rest of the round whether it's pre-seed or Series A.
Not Interested In
I am not interested in areas I don't understand: ad tech, security, biotech. I don't like anything "for millennials." I am not interested in late-stage rounds. I am willing to look at a deck/blurb for just about anything though and am always curious to learn.
