Investing in builders @accel and @ucberkeley. Magic is just spending more time on something than anyone might reasonably expect. Nobody gets my movie references
No founder's journey is a straight line. In this episode, @ivzhou and I reflect on the ups-and-downs of seed stage company building, and discuss the most valuable lessons from working on @mayhemapp together accel.com/spotlight-on/e…
A simple idea to build the @UCBerkeley startup alumni network has grown beyond my wildest dreams into #AccelScholars, a tight-knit community of the most ambitious, talented, kind-hearted people, whose individual stories we’ve been fortunate to support for the past eight years
1/ We are entering year 7 (!) of the #AccelScholars program at @UCBerkeley, during which time we've had the pleasure of working closely with 160+ talented, mission-driven, wonderful humans, who together are the most active alum community that @Cal has to offer
1/ Five years ago, we launched the #AccelScholars at @UCBerkeley, which has coalesced into just the most special community of 130+ brilliant, ambitious, supportive, mission-driven humans. It's surreal to see how far we've come and what they've all gone on to do
Announcing @ivzhou as our newest partner is a surreal, full-circle moment for me. His arrival mirrors my own journey; I was an @Accel founder before joining the early-stage team. I'm so excited to resume the partnership that began many years ago with a Xmas eve termsheet signing
Excited to unveil our seed and series A investment in Headway, one of the most important companies I’ll ever be a part of. Proud to work alongside @andrewlangadams and team to build a new mental healthcare system, rewired for access and affordability
1/ So honored to join the EECS advisory board at @UCBerkeley and continue helping students prepare to navigate Silicon Valley. This has been my mission at #AccelScholars and it's a privilege to do so in a more official capacity www2.eecs.berkeley.edu/Industry/board…
Glad to finally see some press for @pitdesi who is otherwise completely absent from social media and avoids the spotlight due to his innate shyness. Ok, maybe not, but truly a one-of-a-kind human and key driving force behind so many global fintech winners
