We design systems to simplify & optimize career growth, encouraging people to do work that excites them.
I'm Jack, a startup operator and fundraiser who’s helped raise $50M+ for early-stage companies. I’m obsessed with building things from zero, figuring out what actually works, and helping ambitious people punch above their weight. Amateur Hour is my way of sharing what I’ve learned—and what I’m still figuring out—with college students navigating their first career moves.
