I am thrilled to have CoreStack as the first investment from Iron Pillar Fund II. CoreStack is the leader in AI-powered continuous and autonomous cloud governance, compliance and optimization - across public, private, and hybrid cloud environments. Their solution is the pre-requisite for any enterprise looking to embrace a hybrid or a cloud-only environment. No wonder the company has built a stellar business and reputation with global customers, including the US Government.

Nothing unites humanity quite like the inspiration and aspiration of Space, and the quest for answering the question "are we alone in the universe?". I am thrilled to be part of an incredible group of people -- scientists, academics, entrepreneurs, and investors leveraging the SETI Institute platform to both "learn" (through multi-disciplinary research) and "teach" (through educational content, seminars, citizen science projects and outreach). Specifically, I am looking forward to building bridges between Silicon Valley (home of the SETI Institute) and the global south (India, SE Asia, Sub-saharan Africa, Latin America). Humbled and honored!

Honored to have been associated with and been on the Board of Dlight, a poster child of a “do good and do well” company. From the time when DFJ seeded the company in 2007 to the Series C that I led until the time I handed over my responsibilities at the end of 2019, I am thrilled to have been associated with Dlight, which has brought, and continues to bring light into the previously unlit lives of over 100 million of people throughout the world. So proud!
