    2018 - 2024

    After nearly six incredible years, I have officially left BoxOne Ventures, filled with gratitude and excitement. My journey has been transformative, and I am immensely proud of what we have achieved together. In 2018, I met Josh at Creative Destruction Lab. We connected over our mutual passion for pushing the boundaries of bioengineering and computational advancement. We immediately began finding ways to work together and make investments, often as the first check into startups run by world-class founders. Fast forward nearly six years, we've built a firm recognized as one of the most active early-stage investors, with a portfolio exceeding 100 companies and multiple successful exits. Our brand stands as a testament to our founders and community partners who collaborate with us to make this possible.
