Congrats @ahnchrisj! Your thoughtfulness is unparalleled. You made me a better investor and introduced me to the world of web3! Am certain @katie_haun @sjrosenblum and the @HaunVentures team will delight in learning from you just as I did!
Hiring @ahnchrisj was a hell yes moment for the entire team @HaunVentures. He's been an absolute 🌟 everywhere he's worked -- from Morgan Stanley to GitHub to Index Ventures -- and an early believer in crypto and web3. Add to that a gem of a person. Welcome Chris!!!.
