I’m thrilled to announce the launch of my $40M pre-seed and seed-stage fund, @SevenStars_VC, where I’ll be focused on partnering with visionary founders building enduring AI application companies across consumer and enterprise technology.

Seven Stars is deeply personal. It’s named after my parents, who immigrated from South Korea and started a clothing small business in Downtown Los Angeles - Seven Star Fashion. Their tireless work ethic gave me a future and inspires me to show up for founders with that same dedication.

I’m incredibly grateful to our founders, limited partners, co-investors, advisors, and my family for their unwavering support. Read more via @agarfinks in @FortuneMagazine! https://t.co/swpKcZgbey

I’m thrilled to share that we have just closed two new funds: the $225M seed-focused Uncork VIII and the $75M opportunity fund, Uncork Plus IV. And today, we’re also celebrating @uncorkcap 21st anniversary. It’s been a long—at times tumultuous—but always incredible journey to reach the firm’s “adulthood” and I couldn’t be prouder of the team we’ve built and the portfolio of founders we’ve had the privilege of backing over the years.

After co-managing Uncork with @bandrew in recent years, I’ve asked him to take on the role of sole Managing Partner as we prepared to raise these new funds. I’ve had an absolute blast leading Uncork for 21 years—helping shape the seed industry alongside my fellow “OG’s”—but the time feels right for me to step back from day-to-day management. I’ll continue working closely with our portfolio founders, sourcing new opportunities with my Partners, and investing in the next generation of frontier and deep tech entrepreneurs. I’ll also be carving out space for some long-overdue bucket list travel, quality family time, and launching a small wine project in Walla Walla, WA.

Please join me in congratulating Andy as he leads Uncork into its next phase. We couldn’t ask for a better steward of the firm’s future.

LFG!
