I write about what I'm learning — from a decade of building startups and another decade of investing in them. Most of my writing lives on LinkedIn and Twitter.
"The best founders I've backed all share one trait: they're obsessed with a problem, not just an idea."
"Your pitch deck is not your business. It's marketing for your business. Don't confuse the two."
"Pattern matching is dangerous in early-stage investing. The outliers don't fit the pattern—that's what makes them outliers."
"Raising money is not a milestone. It's a means to an end. Too many founders celebrate the funding, not the progress."
"The best VCs I know spend more time with their existing portfolio than sourcing new deals."
"AI is not going to replace founders. But founders who use AI will replace those who don't."
