I have left ONEVC to start a new professional chapter, which I’ll share more soon.
First and foremost, thank you to all of the limited partners and founders for their trust in the quality of my work and the person I am. The unconditional support I have received in the past few months since departing ONEVC has been incredible. I appreciate your pro-active phone calls and the curiosity about the next chapter.
If you have ever been in a call with me, you know that I often quote “funeral alignment” as the way I see the relationship between investors and founders during a partnership.
As investors, we exist to propel the inevitability of the human spirit, from idea to heritage. This ethos is a regular part of my day-to-day thinking.
I would also like to thank my former business partners for all the valuable lessons you have provided me in life and business.
I cherish the good moments we had together, and I look forward to seeing you continue to grow ONEVC to great new heights.
The ONEVC dream lives on, and I will continue to support all portfolio companies that worked with me during this journey.
Onward.
2017 was the most challenging year of my life. I had depression. I thought about suicide a couple of times. Often things felt scary.
If you are a founder reading this, it’s important to understand that you are our customer, and we live to serve you, not the opposite.
Acting slowly and steady upon your dreams and resolutions is the only thing that matters. Never leave inside your mind thoughts that don't evolve into action.
