Thesis

We are operators funding operators. We provide capital from our own personal wealth (no outside LPs) and offer hands-on operational advisory rather than board control. We believe the best venture support comes from those who have built and scaled companies themselves.

Likely not a fit for

Not a board-control fund. Do not take board seats or lead rounds. Not a traditional multi-partner LP-backed fund.
