Co-founded and led Clearco (formerly Clearbanc) to become the world’s largest e-commerce investor. We’ve invested in over $3.2B in over 7,000 different companies across 10 countries. We’ve backed 25x more women than the VC industry average and backed founders in all 50 states in America by using AI to make our investment decisions and not humans. We pioneered the revenue share capital structure for ad spend and inventory that has been copied (to the enormous benefit of founders!) around the world. We were Softbank’s first Canadian investment at a near $2B valuation launching Clearco into unicorn status.
