I'm on the seed team at General Catalyst, focused on backing exceptional founders at the very beginning. Most of my time is spent working with founders building in AI across applications and infrastructure.

Both of my parents are entrepreneurs, so I grew up with a firsthand appreciation for what it takes to build something from scratch. That upbringing gave me both a deep passion for the craft and genuine empathy for the founders who are in the thick of it. Before joining GC, I was on the early stage team at Andreessen Horowitz. Prior to a16z, I was the first hire at Fellows, an AI-focused fund, joining before ChatGPT changed everything. I started my career at ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, where I worked on strategic investments across different product lines.

Outside of work, you'll find me on the tennis court, in a pilates or hot yoga class, or somewhere underwater scuba diving.
