Co-Founder & GP | Zenith Venture Studio | Building Vertical B2B AI Startups for Scalable Exits | Vancouver • DC

We build AI startups before they exist. At Zenith Venture Studio, we identify high-value industry problems, validate them with domain experts, and co-build vertical B2B SaaS companies designed for capital efficiency and scalable exits. Our model combines venture discipline with startup execution: - We source ideas directly from market operators with proven access to customer pain. - Our in-house AI engineering team rapidly prototypes and validates MVPs in real customer environments. - Once traction is proven, we spin out each company with aligned founders and angel investors — optimizing for 6–8x ARR exits in 3 years rather than decade-long unicorn chases. Zenith operates between Vancouver and Washington DC, bridging North American capital, talent, and industry ecosystems. Our angels and LPs participate directly in value creation — not through management fees or carry, but through direct equity in co-built ventures. Current verticals: 🏢 Real Estate & PropTech — AI automation for CRE loan origination 🏨 Hospitality — AI CRM for hotel guest engagement 🏥 Healthcare — Workflow optimization and compliance automation Prior to Zenith, I co-founded Ooosh Tech Lab in Hong Kong and led cross-industry innovation initiatives across Accenture, JP Morgan, Bear Stearns, HSBC Investment Bank, Hutchison Telecom, and Langham Hotels. I’ve also taught entrepreneurship at The Chinese University of Hong Kong and advised startups across Asia and North America. 📈 Our goal: to make venture building faster, leaner, and more predictable — giving angels and LPs early, repeatable access to vertical AI opportunities with structured exits. 🚀 Always open to connect with investors, family offices, and corporate partners who share our “built-to-exit” philosophy.
