I am a venture analyst with hands-on experience evaluating early-stage companies, managing 40+ portfolio investments, and supporting investment committee decisions. I work closely with founders and LPs, translating diligence into clear recommendations and helping portfolio companies move through key milestones. Most recently at Wave Digital Assets, I managed a cross-portfolio set of 40+ companies across two venture funds, led founder check-ins, drove valuations, and rebuilt portfolio tracking in Notion. I also produced quarterly LP updates and developed AI-assisted tools to support valuation policies, memo writing, and fund-structure analysis. I have also built and tested data-driven approaches in crypto markets, including backtesting momentum strategies using SQL and exchange trading signals. Earlier roles included diligence leadership for blockchain deals, portfolio management support with senior partners, and go-to-market work through sales pipeline development and founder-style experimentation in the gaming and consumer tech verticals.
