Johnny Kelly

I am the Founder and Managing Partner at J9 Partners. J9 Partners is an Austin, TX based company connecting local startups and venture capital firms with capital on the coasts. We also perform due diligence and provide deal flow of Austin startups for investors on the coasts.

I previously spend ten years in the Private Wealth Management Division at Morgan Stanley managing money for clients with at least $20M to invest.

I graduated from Williams College in 2003 with a major in Political Science. At Williams, I competed on the Varsity Football and Lacrosse teams. In football, I was selected as a 2002 d3football.com Preseason All-American and in 2002 and 2001 as an East Coast All-Star.
