Investor
I have been in high tech, software and the Internet for over 25 years, as both an operator and investor. I have a physics degree from MIT, and was a programmer in the early 80's before going back to Harvard Business School. I spent 7 years at Microsoft where I started and ran MSN. I came to the Valley in 96 and became a partner at KPCB and participated in 4 KP funds, leading over 20 investments. Currently I am an active angel investor, having made 27 investments over 5 years, serve on the boards of seven private technology companies, three non-profits, and teach a class at Stanford Business School in entrepeneurship
