most interested in

I invest exclusively in plant-based and alternative protein companies whose products are dramatically reducing the number of animals in the food system. I only invest in companies that are currently in the US or that plan to sell in the US in the future. I only invest in companies selling food products or ingredients. I look for founders who are deeply mission-driven and balance confidence with true humility.

not interested in

I am not interesting in investing in anything other than food products or ingredients.
