I am the CEO of Xobni, a great tech startup. I also sit on the board of Heysan, and advise a few startups like 12seconds.tv. I live in San Francisco with my wife and dog. We have a kid on the way (probably here already, as I won’t edit this “about” page very often. I have done a number of startups. The biggest one, before Xobni, was i-drive (online storage), back in 1998-2001. I also worked at Yahoo! where I ran Y! Messenger for a couple years. I also ran Social Search (Answers and Delicious) for a short stint. I am an unabashed Apple fanboy. I am a consumer of gadgets.

I went to UCLA in the early 90s and majored in Classical Civilizations (take that you practical degrees!). I have over 400 skydives. I have more than 24 hours underwater (scuba). I grew up in sunny San Diego. I lived in Europe for 2 years. I have traveled to over 40 countries.
