She just commands thought leadership. Her ability to help develop founders personal brands as well is beyond impressive. She ensures that her companies become "hot" companies. I think Li needs a larger fund so that she can lead deals. She's more than capable.

I've known Steve for years and heard rumors of his reputation. As such I had no interest in him being involved in anything I do. He begged me to pitch his firm, I capitulated and gave them 45mins. I sent over all requested information a week before and expected to have a productive chat. He reviewed nothing, and his team did not do their homework. I ended up raising from a tier 1 firm, and got a nasty email from Steve about how i never gave him a chance. I proceeded to hear from mutual friends that he had bad mouthed my management abilities, claimed my business was fraudulent and generally made up tons of other reasons he "passed" on funding me, which couldn't have been farther from the truth.

We had one meeting with Alex; within 3 minutes of the pitch he stopped us and alerted us to a potential conflict in his existing portfolio, and immediately offered to reschedule once we'd had time to think it over on our end--we very much appreciated his high level of integrity. We proceeded to have a great conversation; he was thoughtful, had insights into our space, and was engaged. Although we were a little later in stage than where he invests, I'd 100% return for any future company raises.

Got an intro to Erik through one of his major LPs. He refused to schedule the call for two weeks before scheduling a 15 minute call to which only his analyst showed up. It was clear Erik wasn't going to show, so the analyst limply had us walk through the deck and then told us we'd be unlikely to be able to raise for this business. This was our third round from tier one VCs.

Really smart guy, great person to brainstorm ideas about business with. He's very much a bias towards kind of guy, often his advice is to "just do it and see." has good consumer intuitions. First round's office is pretty cool too, I believe they let portfolio founders work there.

I was introduced to Jordan by a top-performing NY VC and I can't imagine where we would be without him on our cap table. He is the investor I communicate with most regularly and is quick to respond to requests big and small. GTM strategy, hiring & compensation plans, customer success frameworks, etc. etc. etc. - Jordan has literally spent hours with us at the whiteboard leaving us scratching our heads and wondering (a) when does he sleep and (b) how could he have deep expertise on such a wide variety of topics? His network is extensive and if there is a person or company we are interested in meeting, 9 times out of 10 Jordan can find a way to connect us. He has introduced us to other investors, potential hires, distribution partners, customers, advisors - all of whom have a tremendous amount of respect for him and are eager to chat with us. Finally, he has quickly become a friend! He is supportive and approachable, has a great attitude, and endless energy. We feel very lucky to have him on our team.

He only allocated 20 minutes to talking to me via video conference. During my pitch he ate lunch, chewing loudly into the microphone, while either having his back turned to me or his shoulder and shuffling around with his lunch off-screen. He didn't really ask any useful questions, and it became clear that he hadn't looked at the deck prior to the call either.

I've been reading her tweets and blogs for such a long time that I've become a long-term fan of hers. And when I met her in person, it was just super clear that her knowledge (at least on a theoretical level) of consumer and marketplaces was rock-solid, and that she was super willing to riff on ideas. Fantastic experience working with her.

John is a smart, supportive and self-aware investor. He gives useful feedback and has made multiple introductions, despite not being on our cap table. Our interactions have always been professional but meaningful. Honestly, I can't think of a negative thing to say. Simply, one of the good ones.
