Summary
I’m the Founding Managing Partner at Maven Ventures, a leading seed stage venture firm for emerging consumer software and autonomous technology startups. I’ve been fortunate to achieve 5 unicorn exits including Zoom & Cruise where I was on the board. I do a lot of speaking engagements in Silicon Valley & around the world and have a short published TED talk. I suppose I’m now most well known for naming Zoom. I'm currently working with amazing entrepreneurs who are building companies that will change the world for the better! You can read more about them and their on www.mavenventures.com
