I joined Insight Partners as a Managing Director in 2021 to bring to life our vision to be the best healthtech venture capital firm in the world.
How we as humans provide healthcare reflects both the best in humanity—healthcare heroes, loving care and astounding innovation—but it also reflects our shortcomings. Our healthcare system is oligopolistic and sclerotic, prone to regulatory capture, political division and poor experiences, and creates inequities of access and quality that reflect our historical failures. And yet, healthcare is critical and deeply personal for all of us. It’s also a huge and growing portion of our economy. It’s both a societal foundation and the predominant driver of personal bankruptcy.
While there are many ways to try to fix our broken healthcare system, I focus on just one: how teams—armed with technical prowess and an earned empathy to the problem—can build something greater than themselves in healthcare with software and data.
In fact, everything in my past contributes to this one focus—from capital markets to INSEAD to BCG, then operating businesses at CVS Health, to fixing and scaling e-prescriptions at Surescripts. And now, for the past 10 years, I’ve been an investor who walks closely with founders—as an angel investor, a partner at DCVC, and now here at Insight.
I love serving at Insight for three reasons. First, the firm has a positive, high trust, “do the work” culture from the bottom-up. Second, we have amazing resources and experience to support our CEOs and help them scale their companies at every stage. And third, we have an ability to invest at any stage, which discourages FOMO and enables true long-term “first principles” investing.
For me personally, what I love most is a great team process that leads to discovering and serving the best founders. Once on the cap table, I focus my time with founders on building trust, building teams, and identifying the few things that truly matter.
I live and work in Palo Alto, CA. To my friends, I hope to be known as someone who is always learning, always listening, usually walking and always grateful.
