Subscribers to my newsletter hail from startups, enterprises, and VC firms including household names like Scale Venture Partners, Greylock, and Bessemer.

Last, I'm an active angel investor and advisor. Personally and through GoingVC Partners(which I co-founded), I've invested in 20+ early stage companies, (2 profitable exits and 1 🦄 so far). Investors in startups I've invested in or advise include institutional VC firms like Bain Capital Ventures, Insight Venture Partners, and Boldstart. Previously I spent 6 years at DigitalOcean, including 3 years within the DigitalOcean Marketplace (200+ Apps and Partners) where the product exceeded annual revenue goals and during a time which DigitalOcean experienced a successful 2021 IPO.
