Take a 15-minute call. Come with what you are building, where you are in the raise, and where a technical partner would move the needle.
§ 00 — Invest / Work With Me
I back founders with
a chip on their shoulder.
Pre-seed and seed checks plus the technical expertise to use them well — architecture, early engineering, and warm introductions to funds and family offices. From a three-time founder who has built in AI, computer vision, and healthcare.
Capital is everywhere. A backer who can read the code and open the right doors is not.
01Who I Back
Stage
Pre-seed and seed. I write early checks and prefer to be in the room while the foundations are still being poured.
Sector
Hard technical products — AI, computer vision, healthcare, and data infrastructure. The domains I have built and shipped in.
Founder
Technical founders raising now who want a partner who has carried the same weight — not a passive name on the cap table.
Edge
Companies whose advantage is genuinely technical, where getting the architecture and the early calls right is the difference.
02Beyond The Check
Technical diligence
An operator's read on what you are building — architecture, feasibility, and the decisions that are expensive to reverse later.
Building alongside you
Hands-on help where it counts: system design, hiring the first engineers, and the unglamorous calls that set the trajectory.
Fundraising leverage
Warm introductions to venture funds and family offices in my network, and a candid view of how your raise will land.
Deal flow through Boardy
As a Deal Partner at Boardy Ventures, I can route the right founders into its platform — widening the capital available beyond my own check.
03How It Works
Talk
We go deep on the technical reality and the fundraising path. Fast, direct, and useful whether or not we end up working together.
Decide
If there is a fit, we move quickly — a check, introductions, hands-on help, or a route into Boardy. If not, you leave with a clearer plan.
04Selective Advisory
Beyond investing, I take on a small, vetted number of advisory engagements — where the technical problem is genuinely hard and I can move the outcome. It is deliberately limited. If that is what you need, the same conversation is the place to start.
05Questions
What stage do you invest at?
Pre-seed and seed. I write early checks into technical companies and prefer to engage while the foundations — architecture, first hires, and the core technical bets — are still being set.
What do you look for in a founder?
Technical founders building hard products in AI, computer vision, healthcare, or data infrastructure, who are raising now and want a partner who has built and shipped in those domains — not a passive angel.
What do you add beyond the check?
Technical diligence and architecture guidance, hands-on help with early engineering and hiring, and warm introductions to venture funds and family offices in my network. The goal is to be the most useful name on your cap table, not just another one.
How is this different from a passive angel?
I am a three-time founder and full-stack engineer who has built in AI, computer vision, and healthcare. That means the value is operational, not just financial — I can engage with the technical substance of what you are building and the decisions that determine whether it works.
What is your relationship with Boardy Ventures?
I am a Deal Partner (Scout) at Boardy Ventures, an AI-powered venture platform. Beyond my own checks, I can introduce strong founders into Boardy's platform — which widens the capital and reach available to companies I back.
Do you take on advisory or consulting work?
Selectively, and only after a fit conversation. Advisory is limited and vetted — I take on a small number of engagements where the technical problem is genuinely interesting and I can move the outcome. The fastest way to explore it is the same intro call.
How do we start?
Book a 15-minute call. It is the front door for founders raising capital, for advisory conversations, and for anything in between.
06Invitation
Raising now?
Let's talk.
Fifteen minutes. Bring what you are building and where you are in the raise — you will leave with a clearer path either way.
