What you likely need
You're a technical founder with deep hardware and software roots, a Marshall Scholarship, and hands-on experience inside First Round Capital — a rare combination of builder credibility and VC-side pattern recognition. As you build your stealth startup, the most valuable events for you right now are those that accelerate fundraising conversations with seed-stage investors who respect technical depth, and that connect you with other technical co-founders navigating the early product-market fit stage. Your background at First Round also makes you a natural bridge to the broader SF seed ecosystem.
