BIO
I'm the co-founder & CEO at Village Labs where we're building software for ESOPs. Our hope is that by creating great products and technology for ESOPs, we’ll be able to expand employee ownership across America. Before this, I co-founded Finary (YC W21) where we were building a social network for the stock market (before WallStreetBets went viral!). I studied Technological & Social Innovation at Harvard and left after my sophomore year to do YC.
Ex-company, school and discipline below are derived from this bio. Nothing is inferred when the bio is missing.
