Hi there, I’m Chris! 👋

Hey there! Thanks for exploring my little corner of the internet! I currently am part of the investment team at Panache Ventures, investing in pre-seed/seed Canadian-rooted founders.

I've spent the last few years mostly digging rabbit holes in venture capital - leading investments and portfolio support at Front Row Ventures, building product at AltaML's Venture Studio (founded by Investopedia's creator), investing in Seed to Series B at other funds like White Star Capital and Inovia Capital, and working in biz ops roles at various startup like Optionality AI & Ground AI.

I also spent 2 years serving in the Singapore Military attached to the Singapore Artillery as a Motor Transport Operator & an Emergency Ambulance Operator.

When I'm not obsessing over startups, I'm usually getting submitted in BJJ (somehow still addicted), suffering through another Chelsea FC's season, or running in the city to clear my head. I studied Economics, Computer Science & Entrepreneurship at McGill, which mostly taught me I'd rather build something real than debate theory all day.
