The current thing
Co-founder / CEO at Taxwire.com. We solve global sales tax compliance for fast-growing companies like Italic, Pulley, Tilit, Ordo, and many more.
We’re well funded by respected investors, have hired an experienced team with years of subject-matter-expertise, and are heads down building + onboarding customers. More to come.
Occasional things
-
Sometimes angel invest in other startups via Loft Capital with my friend Hunter. Mostly in people we’ve known a long time and ideas we believe in.
-
Sometimes write about life and work. Mostly things that I’m learning in real time or as a way of processing/recording my own thoughts and experiences.

Previous things
- Head of Growth at Capital (fka Party Round, recently acquired by Rho)
- Early team at On Deck
- Invested in & incubated deep tech startups at a niche VC fund called Ikove Capital.
- Co-founded a low-speed EV company called Olympus when I was 20. Raised $1M+. Made a lot of mistakes + our original thesis was wrong. Pivoted around. My co-founders sold the company to PE in 2020. Wasn’t really a success but proud that we didn’t lose investor’s money.
Other things
- Interviewed interesting people about money and investing
- Started New York Tech Week as a growth stunt while at Capital
- Occasionally organize small group dinners of other founders and builders in NYC (ping me if you want to be invited)
- Interested in history, sci-fi, demographics, culture, religion, financial services, global macro, memes
- Other things I love — reading, running, lifting, traveling, music, coffee, poker
