I'm an entrepreneur, investor, and mentor driven by one core question: "What if we could truly cure and prevent autoimmune diseases?" From leading groundbreaking projects at Tesla and SpaceX, I've now turned my passion toward funding research that can change millions of lives. The Journey Here: Imagine building something entirely new at Tesla—from zero to over 90 brilliant minds in less than six months. Picture leading a passionate volunteer team at SpaceX, tackling the challenge of building the Hyperloop, the future of transportation. These experiences taught me what’s possible when driven teams unite around a bold vision. Now, driven by deeply personal experiences, I've founded ASDF Global—a fund exclusively committed to curing and preventing autoimmune diseases. We believe in funding bold ideas, backing courageous researchers, and creating real, lasting solutions. Why Autoimmune Diseases? Millions live every day with diseases we don’t fully understand. What if the next big breakthrough could come from a single investment, mentorship, or partnership? Our Approach at ASDF Global: - Funding Bold Ideas: We invest directly in research dedicated to finding cures and prevention strategies for autoimmune diseases. - Mentoring Innovators: We provide strategic capital and mentorship to biotech visionaries who are committed to groundbreaking research. - Creating Transformative Partnerships: We unite investors, researchers, and industry leaders around the shared mission of eradicating autoimmune diseases. Why Join Us? - We have a proven track record of rapidly scaling multidisciplinary teams in emerging fields. - Our network spans influential investors, technology pioneers, and healthcare innovators. - We are deeply committed to transparent communication, excellence, and achieving measurable results. A Personal Promise: Collaboration, curiosity, and excellence guide my life. From my home base in Spokane, WA, you’ll often find me exploring mountain trails or immersed in learning. Each step forward is fueled by a vision of a healthier, more vibrant world. Ready to Take Action? If you’re ready to be part of meaningful, life-changing advancements in autoimmune disease research, let's connect. Together, let’s turn bold ideas into reality.
