Personal

These are companies I’ve started myself or been involved with from the beginning.

Free Lunch (Cofounder)

Small-scale hedgefund, yes I know our website is ugly don't @ me

Aeternum Analytics (Founder)

Began with facial recognition, ended up selling trading cards. Biggest pivot since The Boring Company switched to flamethrowers

Osmos Learn

Service for K-12 teachers that uses GPT-4V to scan assignments and automatically grade them based on a rubric. Currently on hold due to new student privacy regulations. Started by my friend, I built a lot of the backend

Investments

Eventually I want to run my own VC fund, so I’ve been practicing through Reg-CF. Hopefully one day this will serve as a track record when I go to raise money from investors, but in the meantime it’s teaching me a lot and reading the quarterly updates is always exciting. I initially set out to make 100 investments by the time I graduate college, so far I’m 2 years in with 52 investments across 50 companies.

Highlights

These have been the best performers, with substantial revenue growth and/or follow-on rounds at much higher valuations.
