Financing the future of people.
Real estate. AI. Media. I bet on the person, every time. It's worked often enough that I've stopped apologizing for how simple it sounds.
I don't have a complicated thesis. Find someone who's obsessed, back them early, stay in longer than everyone else. The sectors I care about happen to be real estate, AI, and media.
Some people invest in markets. I invest in the people who bend them.
Three sectors, one obsession: the people building in them.
Co-founder and managing partner. Day-to-day operations for the fund, and the person responsible for identifying, underwriting and negotiating every investment it makes.
culturecapital.fund ↗Passwordless security built on decentralized identity — Zero Trust protection for data across cloud and devices. A deep-technology bet underwritten the same way a building is.
circlesecurity.ai ↗Equity and debt placement across the capital stack. The discipline the other two inherited: structure it so the downside is known before the upside is discussed.
monsterequities.com ↗Identifies, manages, and owns residential real estate across South Florida — the same underwriting discipline turned closer to home, asset by asset.
Site forthcoming
“I have never funded a category. I fund the person running it.”
Tell me who you're backing.
Disruptive technology, an unusual capital structure, a founder worth meeting — those are the notes worth sending. Everything else can wait.
