About

Studied Mech Eng/Robotics at Carnegie Mellon University, helped create first interactive networked media applications at Bell Atlantic in early 90s (including VOD and interactive TV), joined @Home when it was a startup and ended managing e-commerce product and sales for the public company Excite@Home. Cofounded and ran Snapfish as CEO from 1999-2005. It's now one of the largest online photo services in the world with over 80M members & peaked over $300M revenue. The company was profitable and growing faster than the market. We sold Snapfish to HP in April 2005 for $300M. Became a Managing Director at Mayfield Fund in August 2005 - a top silicon valley venture capital fund with over $3B under management. I invested in 14 companies over 7 years in consumer internet/mobile, e-commerce, SMB, online adtech, social, and marketplaces - including early rounds in Lyft, Rubicon Project, Qunar, Fivestars, and Red Beacon. I also sourced Moat. In 2012, I started a new vehicle to cofound companies alongside awesome founders (cofounder.co) and then started and ran one of the companies in 2013 - fitmob - which grew into one of the largest fitness networks in the US in 8 cities.
