About

Hello, there! I’m an early-stage investor and cofounder focused on transforming cutting-edge A.I. research into real-world companies. My expertise lies in the zero-to-one phase… the critical first two years where ideas become teams, products, and businesses. Over the course of my career, I’ve personally raised (or helped my teams raise) more than $500 million in capital and helped create more than $2 billion in startup valuation. More importantly, I’ve had the privilege of working with exceptional founders to help them become the best versions of themselves and build their dreams. Outside of work/family: — Teach entrepreneurship at the University of Washington (foster.uw.edu) — Play drums in a dad-rock cover band (youtube.com/@GoodLettuce) — Black and white street/travel photography (jacobcolker.com)
