I love working on Help-First products that level playing fields and inspire passionate teams. Levelset was one of those amazing products and teams. This company was founded because of a rock in my shoe about construction payment stresses. We raised $46M in venture capital, sold to Procore (NYSE: PCOR) for $500M, and changed the construction cash and payment landscape forever. Today, I'm an investor, board director, and advisor to impressive founders and companies. And, more than anything, I'm excited about everything that's still to come.
