I founded Opulentia to create a collective of seasoned investors who have retained their origins as engineers, operators, innovators, policymakers, philosophers, and entrepreneurs. By leveraging our time, network, rich experience, and dynamic drive, we assist founders in building enterprises that drive economic growth. Operating as a VC Tribe, we consolidate our resources to support pioneering companies, focusing on technological advancements, healthcare, and national security to foster innovation for a healthier and safer nation.
With over fifteen years of experience investing in early to expansion-stage innovative companies, I have had the privilege of investing in the Pre-IPO stages of globally renowned enterprises such as Twitter (now X), Facebook (now Meta), Nextdoor, Palantir, and Rubrik. My current roles as a board member at TiE DC Angels and the Thomas Jefferson Partnership Fund (TJPF), coupled with previous board positions at the Center for Innovative Technologies (now VIPC) and the Virginia Economic Investment Authority (IEIA), have provided me with invaluable insights into the evolution of numerous startups.
Presently, I serve as the Executive Chairman at Unissant, an organization focused on healthcare and national security within the government contracting sector. Evolving from a startup, Unissant has earned its place among the Inc 5000 fastest-growing companies and is recognized as a middle-tier leader in government contracting. Throughout this journey, my focus has remained on the federal market, utilizing data and technology to carry out missions that protect our nation’s health and security.
