Co-founded the Quantitative Equity Division at WPG in 1991. Managed two billion dollars of pension fund money in large stock portfolios using a unique mathematical model based on the Nobel Prize winning theories of Dr. Harry Markowitz. Worked with Dr. Markowitz in 1989-1990.

Raised $43 million of equity and debt capital for TWS. TWS provided RF engineers to the large carriers. It also provided SMS solutions to the carriers. TWS also built and ran the mobile network on the island of American Samoa after winning the PCS license for the territory in the C-band auctions in 1996. I secured the initial funding for TWS for the auctions while I was a partner at Weiss, Peck & Greer.

K8 Ventures, started in 2016, is a Venture Builder Studio. K8 builds companies "in-house" rather than buying fractional interests in outside companies. K8 is essentially an operating company rather than a Fund, so it retains much higher levels of equity in its companies and maintains management control and a high level of consistency over its portfolio companies.
