Bio

 

I co-founded Beluga, which was acquired by Facebook in 2011, and became the founding engineer on Facebook Messenger. At Facebook, I also worked on developing a personalized learning platform for K-12 education in partnership with Summit Public Schools, a project at the Chan-Zuckerberg Initiative. Prior to that, I built products at Google including AdWords, Google News and Google Docs.

While I’ve been angel investing for the past 10 years, I became a full time angel in 2018. I’m a member of First Round Capital’s Angel Track and a visiting partner at Pear VC.
