Are you a startup founder or entrepreneur, or interested in how the future of technology with evolve? I make new videos every week about technology platform shifts, venture investing, and topics relevant to launching your business.  

I’m a Silicon Valley based venture capitalist at multi-billion dollar fund SignalFire, and an investor in companies such as Uber, Ro, Grammarly, and others. I spent years bouncing between stints at Google, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs, and Harvard Business School, but grateful that this path finally led me to my dream job as a VC.

I was raised by parents from a farming village in Taiwan, who left everything behind to become engineers in America and build a better life for their kids.  I’m inspired by a world with no gatekeepers, and my personal mission is to raise the collective level of empathy in the world.  Today, I do this by investing in early-stage startups that are breaking down the barriers to a more connected, open and educated society.
