Students & founders
Building Together
Some of the most meaningful parts of my journey have come from helping other people start theirs. Through OMNIAPATH and Hacker Dojo, I’ve helped students explore entrepreneurship and supported founders building in Silicon Valley. I enjoy understanding what someone is trying to build, where they’re stuck, and how I can help.
OMNIAPATH
Giving students a place to start
I started OMNIAPATH with friends during my sophomore year at the University of Michigan. We wanted to help students explore their interests and turn them into something real.
Over time, our programs supported more than 300 students internationally. I developed entrepreneurship programs, created a venture capital class, and committed my own money to a small fund supporting students.
Working with young people taught me to listen before giving advice and to take their trust seriously. It also made me think more carefully about how we recognize potential in someone who is just getting started.
I transitioned out of my CEO role in August 2026.
Hacker Dojo
Building alongside founders
I co-founded Hacker Dojo’s accelerator to support local Silicon Valley founders. After building my own businesses, I wanted to spend more time around people asking similar questions and figuring things out together.
What I enjoy most is getting to know the person behind the idea: what they care about, what they’re trying to solve, and what would help them move forward. I learn a lot from those conversations too.
Sharing What I’m Learning
I really enjoy speaking and sharing what I’m learning along the way—my views on entrepreneurship, the decisions that worked, the ones that didn’t, and how those experiences have changed the way I think.
Building companies has given me a lot to reflect on: how I understand people, earn trust, make decisions, and handle uncertainty. Speaking gives me a chance to put those thoughts into words and hear different perspectives.
I’m still figuring things out myself. If sharing an experience can help someone make a decision, avoid a mistake, or feel more confident taking their first step, that matters to me.
Why I’m drawn to venture capital
My interest in venture capital comes from these experiences. I’m curious about how people spot potential early, build conviction, and support founders as their companies grow.
I want to keep learning that work and bring what I’ve learned from building my own businesses. The part that excites me most is getting to know ambitious people and finding practical ways to help them.
