Work Experience

  • Partner

    2008

    I've had the privilege of leading many of Bessemer's software investments, including the first institutional investments in Procore, Restaurant365, TractionGuest, Ada, and LiveAuctioneers, early-stage investments in Clio, Weave, and Mambu, and growth-stage investments in nCino, Beyond Pricing, and Bumble. I launched Bessemer's efforts in Latin America where I led our investment in Wildlife Studios and Enjoei. During my time at Bessemer, I also supported our investments in Gainsight, Mindbody, and Playdom, and helped found Columbia Lake Partners, a European venture debt fund. Bessemer has partnered with some of the world's most successful technology businesses including Shopify, Twilio, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Yelp, Pagerduty, Sendgrid, Box, Docusign, Instructure, Wix, Verisign, Criteo, Cornerstone, Fiverr, and Lifelock. We've built the largest vertical software portfolio in the venture industry with investments in Procore, Shopify, Toast, nCino, ServiceTitan, Mindbody, 2U, Broadsoft, Vlocity, Disco, and many others.
