Doing business is hard. It takes entrepreneurial grit to build from zero and resilience to keep building when the path isn't obvious. Enabling capital for that entrepreneur brings me a sense of satisfaction. But the only way to be responsible for the success of a business, rather than useful to it, is to deploy capital yourself while enabling returns for the investors. Over the years, being on both sides of supporting and deploying capital, I have developed the ability to have early conviction, unlock strategic growth, and generate returns.
