I am a Co-founder of Premise, a San Francisco company building machinery to help the human race better understand its own economic activity. We are backed by SocialCapital, Google Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, Harrison Metal and Bowery. Prior to Premise, I was the founding CEO of Metamarkets, a world leader in large-scale data analytics, funded by Khosla Ventures. I have a decade and a half of capital markets, data infrastructure and tech startup experience, running the gamut from quant modeling, to product design, to corporate strategy. I advise established companies on data, digital, new product and monetization strategies. I actively support early-stage companies in getting products to market. I have an academic background in Linguistics, History and Economics. In conversation someone recently described me as a Systems Theorist. I think this is accurate. Systems fascinate me, be they linguistic, market or electronic in nature. Specialties New product ideation. Team building. New venture formation. Dogs, ponies, elderberries. Vipassana.
