About
My goal is to help exceptional founders realize their highest ambitions. I now invest independently, partnering with entrepreneurs from the earliest stages. I draw on my operating years as PayPal's CFO, more than two decades at Sequoia, and the companies I've had the privilege to work alongside since 2000. I am still captivated when a founder recounts what inspired them to strike out on their own. That vision and connection to user needs shapes a company's DNA and sets its trajectory. I am also drawn to business models built on transparency and responsiveness. Over the past 25 years, I have worked with a broad range of companies. Some are making the future multiplanetary (SpaceX); some democratize technology access (Block, Eventbrite, Ethos, Unity); some create global user communities (YouTube, Tumblr, Instagram); some rebuild foundational infrastructure and medicine (MongoDB, Natera); and others disrupt markets through innovative business models (Evernote, Xoom). All of them are led by inspirational founders and management teams who take a unique approach to solving meaningful problems.
