Partner at PeakSpan Capital. Passionate about building towards our mission of becoming the partner of choice for emerging growth-stage software entrepreneurs and management teams. At PeakSpan, I focus just on business software across the following themes: Payments, Supply Chain, Procurement and E-Commerce. I'm privileged to work with nearly twenty of our portfolio company partners and hundreds of amazing software executives across two funds.
