BIG Update: I’m joining @a16z as an Investing Partner on the a16z @speedrun team! 🎉

I’ll be focusing on early-stage investing as part of speedrun, where we invest up to $1M in exceptional founders building great companies, & give them unfair advantages to succeed. If you are or know a founder who wants to win, I'd love to meet you! I'm especially excited about compelling novel ideas in AI dev tools, agent RL & evals, data, & infra in general.

For those who have known me over the years, you know how much joy I get in supporting those around me. From working countless nights to support my brilliant teammates at @scale_AI, to spending thousands of hours in my leisure time making free videos for millions of students in Bangladesh, I have given my all to support those doing their life's most important work. That has always been my personal mission.

So, when I met the speedrun team, a team that works relentlessly to make early bets & support founders from the very beginning of their journey, I knew this was the dream team for me. I am thrilled to join this shared mission with @andrewchen, @Tocelot, @tkexpress11, @emilybenn12, @kenanhsaleh, @far33d, @marcussegal, @ndrewlee, & the rest of the team! It's time to build.
