Currently building new things @Oooh and @PinataFarms. Angel Investor. Venture Partner and Startup Advisor. Most recently at @Twitch I was leading a portfolio of incubation projects and corporate development.

I like building companies and solving problems creatively. I've spent the better part of my career at three different live video

startups - two of which have been acquired for more than $1.2 billion combined. I've helped raise more than $100 million in fundraising from institutional and private investors. Back in the day, I learned how to PPT and XLS as a strategy consultant focused on media, entertainment and technology.
