I’m the current CEO of Parcl, a blockchain-based platform that allows users to invest in a digital square foot of physical real estate in neighborhoods around the world. I have seasoned experience as a portfolio manager at several hedge funds focused on the technology sector — specifically software, payments (where I was introduced to blockchain 5 years ago), and internet. Previous to Parcl, I was a Portfolio Manager at Force Hill Capital Management, where I managed a portfolio of over $500M focused on growth technology. I have also held previous roles as a Portfolio Manager & Senior Analyst at Millennium, a VP at Barclays and an associate at Lazard Capital Markets.
