Company Info for robin.co | IcebreakerMembers
Silicon Valley founder turned VC. I've seen all stages of the growth curve -- from founding a health tech startup, riding 3 consecutive exits into a leadership role inside a 70,000-employee global giant. I straddle the business and tech sides -- including AI / ML / and generative applications.
Demonstrated ability to recruit and lead high-caliber technology teams, partner with Fortune 100 companies, and build multi-year strategic plans at the national level. But currently loving venture capital.
A technology idealist with an owner’s mindset, who loves to tinker, experiment, and challenge assumptions (most crucially, my own).
Work aside, I'm a colorblind pilot, professionally-recorded musician, and ice-hockey fanatic.
