About

Hunter Walk brings an unusually operator-heavy perspective to seed investing as a former YouTube product leader who helped build it from a small Google acquisition into a global platform, combined with transparent, practitioner-style writing where he regularly shares internal heuristics, deal lessons, and mistakes through his long-running blog. He publicly frames his role as "funding startups via Homebrew and new VCs via Screendoor," making supporting emerging fund managers a core part of his identity, while maintaining an active personal blog that blends family stories with venture lessons to give founders a clear sense of who he is as a person before they pitch him.
