02 — Principles

How I work.

Vigilant
I look for what can go wrong before it does — in a business model, a control framework or a term sheet.
Precise
Specific beats impressive. I say what I know, name what I don’t, and put numbers on things.
Discreet
Conversations with founders and institutions stay private unless we agree otherwise.
Builder-first
The people doing the work come first. My job is to remove obstacles, not add process.
