Work Experience

G

Greylock

  • Partner

    2009 - Current

    Greylock partners with entrepreneurs to build market-transforming companies. Notable Greylock portfolio includes companies like Linkedin, Airbnb, Facebook, Workday, Roblox, Palo Alto Networks, Dropbox, Pure Storage, Instagram and Discord. I represent Greylock on the boards of Aurora, Coda, Entrepreneur First, Tome, and Nauto. My primary focus is world-class entrepreneurs with bold new ideas with the possibility of massive scale. I also focus on companies in domains where my product and entrepreneurial experience applies strongly: consumer internet, enterprise 2.0, mobile, social gaming, online marketplaces, payments, SAAS, and social networks. Getting a reference through someone I know is the best way to get attention from me as an investor, or any other capacity.

    2022

    Throughout the history of computing, humans have had to learn to speak the language of machines. In the new paradigm, machines will understand our language. Recent advances in artificial intelligence promise to fundamentally redefine human-machine interaction. We will soon have the ability to relay our thoughts and ideas to computers using the same natural, conversational language we use to communicate with people. Over time, these new language capabilities will revolutionize what it means to have a digital experience.
