I'm a Managing Director and General Partner at PWV where I invest in early stage technology startups alongside Tom Preston-Werner and David Price.
I advise 🌲 RedwoodJS and was previously part of the Core Team. I also consulted at ⚡️Supabase back in 2021.
Before then I was part of a few 🏟 sports, 🔋 energy-related and 🤔 consulting startups with exits.
I enjoy ☕️ and collecting 🖍 street art, 🧷 punk/new wave/rock poster art and ephemera (mainly Madchester, The Haçienda, and Factory Records), vintage 🥁 🤖 drum machines & 🎹 synths.
