Selected Investments

I invest in early-stage technology companies and venture funds, with a particular interest in founders building thoughtful products with strong distribution potential.

My investments typically reflect a long-term perspective on technology, product development and company building. In addition to investing, I occasionally work with founders as an advisor on finance, growth and strategy.

Below are a selection of companies and ventures I’ve been involved with.

Operating Experience

Canva

Canva is a global design platform that has transformed how individuals and organisations create visual content. The company has grown from a small Australian startup into one of the world’s most widely used design tools, serving hundreds of millions of users across individuals, teams and enterprises.

I spent eight years as CFO during a period of significant growth and continue to hold a meaningful shareholding earned during that time. My experience at Canva provided a front-row seat to the challenges and opportunities involved in building and scaling a global technology company.

The lessons from that period continue to shape how I think about product development, company building and investing in early-stage technology businesses.
