About

Jason Starr is a rare operator-investor hybrid who stepped in as CEO of portfolio company Awakened Foods and brings full-stack experience across operations, technology, venture capital, and private equity specifically in consumer, which he channels into unusually hands-on engagement with founders through weekly calls and deep work on financial models and systems. He combines early tech startup operating experience as founder of Denver-based BoldTech Systems with multi-stage consumer investing experience spanning seed to buyout at firms like Opus Capital, Winona Capital, and CircleUp, giving him pattern-recognition across the entire consumer investment lifecycle.
