When I started investing, I was one of the first people to raise a small VC fund without going full-time. I thought I could do both things well and that being an active operator gave me more ability to find interesting companies and provide relevant help to them.

Since then, I've been one of the earliest investors in companies that are now incredibly successful, including Patreon (now a unicorn), Clubhouse (unicorn), Lattice (unicorn), MainStreet, On Deck, Lambda School, and several others.

Other Ventures invests in early-stage tech companies and is my primary investment vehicle. We also lead occasional growth-stage deals via a syndicate. Accredited investors can back both the fund and the syndicate to get access to all my deals.
