About
Nick started his career at Yale's Investment Office under David Swensen and applies endowment-investing principles to venture capital, focusing on getting incentives right and working from first principles rather than traditional VC pattern-matching. He was one of the earliest institutional investors to publicly champion Bitcoin and crypto infrastructure from a financial-services perspective, already explaining in 2013 why Ribbit was actively seeking Bitcoin companies while other VCs on the same panels said they would only touch equity.
