About Me

I'm in our Investment Team and work out of our Melbourne office. I spend most of my life supporting ambitious founders to build products people love. I'm a huge sports fan and outside of Blackbird you'll find me playing tennis, golf, basketball or running (at a mediocre pace). Before Blackbird, I helped establish an early-stage venture fund where I was an investor in Aussie founders with unconstrained ambitions. ‍

"The most contrarian thing of all is not to oppose the crowd but to think for yourself."

What do you do at Blackbird?

My mission is to find and work alongside the most ambitious founders that endeavour to revolutionise the way people live their life.

What did you do before Blackbird?

What do you believe that others do not?

An unconstrained ambition that is centralised in areas that are contrarian > everything.

What ideas are you excited by right now?

There is so much to be excited about! I love enterprise SaaS, space, robotics and AI - especially in categories that are yet to be labelled. No river of inquiry is too obscure.
