Speaker Bio
I'm a designer, engineer, and investor in early stage startups. Cofounder and managing partner of Initialized Capital, an early stage seed fund with over $230M in assets under management.

Previously a partner at Y Combinator. Invested in and directly worked with over 700 companies in 5 years from the earliest possible stage, often just an idea.

Before that, I cofounded Posterous and helped build it to a world-class website used by millions. (Acquired by Twitter) I also cofounded the engineering team for Palantir Technology's quant finance analysis platform, and designed the current Palantir logo and wordmark.

I love building things.
