I believe in the power of experiences and environments to create authentic connection and catalyze human ingenuity. I was on the founding teams that built two new colleges from the ground up (at Minerva and at ASU). I currently am building a "world" at Long Journey, where we are second believers in the magically weird — an early stage venture capital fund that's invested early in SpaceX, Uber, Niantic, Loom, and beyond. The project I'm most excited about is building a theme park for authentic connection.
