About
Katie Jacobs Stanton brings an unusually broad operating background spanning the White House, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, and Color Genomics, giving her a cross-sector lens across government, consumer internet, media, and genomics that she applies when working with founders. She explicitly uses "don't be a jerk" as an investment filter, making kindness and integrity hard requirements rather than nice-to-haves when choosing where to spend her time and capital.
