Everyone talks about ranking QBs yet no one ever talks about ranking offensive coordinators. There’s 1-32 and the #Eagles might have 32…

Over nine years ago I moved to SF to work at Citigroup as an analyst. I thought an 80k salary was life changing. Shared a 5 bedroom/1 bathroom apartment with 4 girls I met on Craigslist. Today I watched a sign with my VC firms name on it be put up outside of my new office just blocks away. No way in the world I ever thought I'd make it to this point. Never give up.

@samanthaistan First time I’ve seen the team having fun this year

I could not be more thrilled to share that Throne closed a $4M seed round led by @KatieS at @MoxxieVentures…
AND that we’ve been joined by a third co-founder, @JohnCapodilupo, Chief Product Officer.
Prior to Throne, John was co-founder and CTO of @WHOOP. He is also a very public advocate for IBD, as he has ulcerative colitis and sits the board of trustees for the @CrohnsColitisFn.
Between his professional experience building WHOOP and his personal experience with a chronic digestive disease, there just isn’t a more perfect person on Earth.
I gotta extend a very heartfelt THANK YOU 🙌 to Katie and John, ofc, and also to the many others who have supported us along the way — @TaraViswanathan, @jwmares, @lancearmstrong, @mikenemke, @swerdlin, @ericbahn, @MatiasNisenson, @nickcandito, @carterkev, @brian_blum1, @Austen, @Milankordestani, @brettrjackson and many others.
@ThroneScience is the most important thing I’ve ever worked on. I sincerely believe this device will improve health and one day save lives.
I am so lucky to get to wake up each day and work on something I love and believe in — I wouldn’t get to do it without your support. Thank you. 🙏

Work Update: I’ve joined Amplify Capital as Partner.
I’ve always chased work that moves the world forward.
After becoming a parent, winding down my last company, some travel, and a lot of honest reflection on what I want to do next, one truth landed hard - the world doesn’t need more AI SaaS widgets, blockchain beanie babies, or another “Uber for X”.
What it is missing is founders solving tangible problems that impact us all - energy storage, material innovation, patient care, and quality education. Those are the kinds of problems that make me proud of past angel bets like Mast Reforest, Gradient, Mootral, Brightside Health, and Aalo. And that's exactly where Amplify focuses.
