Learning & investing in the future of work and Web3 / angel investor / Co-founder & Exec Chair @beacon_talent
Brooklyn, NY
Joined March 2007
Wow, I made 22 angel investments in 2021 (most I've made in a year by far): into fintech, travel, commerce, social, real estate, edtech, hardware, wellness, adtech, and future of work startups. My first investment of 2022 is in web3. Bullish. 🚀

Max pain across tech right now, no end in sight. I wrote about how not to drive your startup off a cliff https://t.co/2XddChWYCr

Day 1 of Primary’s #NYCSummit: @MarcLore and @bksun on operational excellence, high-caliber teams, and a bit of Marc’s story. As an aside, props to the entire @PrimaryVC team: raising an already high bar (from previous PVP summits) even higher this year!

Enormous milestone for you @bksun — congratulations on the recognition for both you and @PrimaryVC! 🚀
Wonderful but weird to be on #ForbesMidas. Having been a founder, I got into investing to stay involved in early-stage building. It's a lot easier on this side! 40 companies, 12 years, 8 unicorns, and 1 decacorn later, I have some lessons and predictions:

The best startup advice to potential founders I've heard: Get started. The rest will follow.

Your startup doesn't need to fail fast. It can succeed slow.
