What I'm Looking For
confident and passionate entrepreneurs, transforming/creating an industry, seeking strategic capital. I'm location agnostic, looking for businesses taking a shot at a $1B+ TAM, where you believe you have a sound thesis, a couple advantages (IP, ops/process, tech), and willing to drastically pivot.
