I'm an investor at Correlation Ventures = pioneering the use of predictive analytics in Venture Capital. Once a startup chooses a lead VC firm in their round we consider co-investment opportunities to help the team complete their round.
Some of my investments include Good Eggs (Seed), InstaEDU (A - Acquired by Chegg), Earnest (Seed), mParticle (Seed), Compass (Seed), Dolls Kill (A), Boomtrain (Seed), Able fka Outbox (A), mNectar (A), Visually (A), Ioxus (C), Pingpad (Seed).
I also hold the Guinness World Record for the Farthest Open Water Row across the Arctic Ocean. Sponsored by Eddie Bauer and many others, my team of 4 rowed over 1000 miles for 41 days nonstop and unsupported through some of the most pristine (and treacherous) Arctic landscapes. Ask me about the 8 day Arctic Hurricane... ouch!
I also serve on the board of the NextGen Partners organization and I’m a Kauffman Fellow of Entrepreneurship and Innovation - both are educational institutions that serve the Venture Capital community.
