Managing Director of SEA Investments Authentic founders who are just getting started on a business that they want to build for the rest of their lives. I believe that the most iconic companies take time to build, there are no shortcuts to building something meaningful, and that founder market fit is critical, especially in the early years. I love hearing the why behind the how, and the how behind the what. Why a founder started a business, how the idea came to them, and what drives their conviction and excitement while starting their business. The best founders are insanely curious because curiosity drives growth, and the best founders don’t have a choice but to grow immensely in their startup’s journey. I spend most of my time with seed and Series A founders, not only because that is the best time to help bend the arc, but also because, selfishly, it helps scratch the founder’s itch within me.
