The fastest growing @LookingGlassCap portco (from pre-launch to $40M+ run-rate in 9 months) is seeking a VP of Ops, Chief Product Officer, and Chief of Staff. The team is building a seminal healthcare organization; I can’t endorse the founder and his vision more highly. DMs open.

A quarter century ago a young journalist on the NYTimes M&A beat arrived at my apartment and impressed me with his acumen and initiative. Today he is the leading financial journalist across print, books, TV, and global conferences with the world’s power brokers on speed dial. He has a great new book, 1929, and is hosting his top tier DealBook conference in NYC on Wednesday. This is my tribute to Andrew Ross Sorkin. youtu.be/G-xANdldnSo

I implore every New Yorker to watch this video and heed it's conclusion.
