The grit, passion, and audacity with which founders approach problems leave me in awe every day.

Given the focus on early-stage investments, I spend most of my time closely working with enterprising founders tackling hard problems that can create large scale impact. Having witnessed the immense power of education personally, I am grateful that my work offers me the opportunity to contribute back to democratizing access to education and opportunity.
