Managing Director - Entertainment & Gaming, Co-Head US / North America, Co-Founder, Sony Ventures
2016 - 2024
It all started with less than a handful of people, an idea, and some inspiration. We were fortunate enough to have good timing too. Over an 8+ year period, what we called Sony Innovation Fund turned into a family of 3 core and 2 smaller special-purpose funds built on internal and external capital. We established Sony Ventures to become the platform that managed all of it. Throughout my tenure we took this from inception, pulling double duty for years to our "day" jobs, to a team of 30+ people with offices in 7 geographies and a global portfolio of nearly 200 early stage and growth companies. I stand proud with my co-founders and team on everything Sony Ventures has become as the journey was not easy nor standard, even with corporate parents with innovation in mind.
