BIO

I have been investing in technology companies for close to three decades now yikes with a continuous focus on enterprise software internet and tech-enabled companies. After many years at General Atlantic ICG and FTV I finally took the entrepreneurial plunge and founded Harmony Partners in 2010. Harmony fills a gap in the market for flexible founder-friendly expansion capital and we are currently investing out of Harmony IV. I eat breathe and sleep software and love rolling up my sleeves with founders to help scale their businesses faster smarter and larger. The role of founder is incredibly exhilarating and rewarding but equally challenging and at times lonely. My job is to make founders lives better - as a trusted advisor candid confidante and empathetic ear who can help think through current issues and peer around the corner to prepare for successive waves of growth. I have had the privilege of working with amazing founders and management teams over the years. Many of the private companies Ive invested in completed successful IPOs including Anaplan NASDAQ PLAN ETrade ETFC IntersectENT XENT LHS Group LHSG Natera NTRA Predictive Systems PRDS Priceline BKNG Prime Response PRME Scopus SCPS SSC SSNC. And many others experienced MA events such as AppDynamics acquired by Cisco Aveksa EMC RSA Coremetrics IBM Divide Google FigureEight Appen Hello Colgate-Palmolive Platfora Workday Synapse Time Inc. Trendkite Cision and Xceedium CA Technologies. My current investments include Alation Axonify Iterable Postmates Randori Swiggy UiPath and Zerto.
