ABOUT

My recent work has been as a startup founder, operator, and angel investor.

Before Slang, I was the first business hire & first Head of Community at Clubhouse.
Prior to that, I did a stint as an Entrepreneur-in-Residence at Harvard.


I’m an M.D. I previously was an Emergency Medicine resident physician at Harvard / Mass General.

I founded a women's health tech startup while in medical school.

I love the arts. I've been writing in some form for 10+ years. I’ve dabbled in film, fashion, music & comedy.

I stayed in school at The University of Texas & Harvard Business School, where I was a Baker Scholar.

WRITING

I write weekly on my blog, Working Theorys, about life, art, & business — often thru the lens of tech startups. My writing has been quoted / featured in the likes of The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Every, Mercury, & JAMA. I run a private writing group, Writers Block. Some people have asked about 1:1 coaching (if interested, please e-mail me).

INVESTING

I support early-stage startups, especially capital-light, consumer and consumer-like startups in social, media, gaming, future of work, & health and wellness. I'm philosophically aligned with modern small businesses and platforms or tools that enable more small businesses to be built. I'm part of First Round's Angel Track community.


Some teams I've supported: BeReal, Clubhouse, Daze, Peachy, Slay, Soundmap, Station, Sush, & Trace.

REACH ME

Reach out about my work, writing, or interesting ways to work together.
I enjoy helping builders, writers, and creators with special projects or as an advisor.

As an FYI, I'm not able to reply to every email & prefer to communicate async first instead of intro calls.
