Few resources to share:
Help with your personal taxes or strategizing stock option exercises: I recently met with the folks at Haven, a modern tax firm tailored for founders and operators, led by CPAs who previously worked as the Tax Delivery Leads at Carta. They can help with strategizing stock option exercises, dealing with K1s, optimizing taxes for real estate sales, filing taxes efficiently, and more.
Consultant to handle any COO/CFO tasks you need handling (eg figuring out healthcare, payroll, disability insurance): I recently started working with Natalie of OpsFox to set up payroll, healthcare, HR, and bookkeeping for my own LLC (ie stuff I hate dealing with, but it’s important that it’s done right). Highly recommend.
Podcast and media production: If you ever need an incredible podcast, event, or video production and editing, Justin at EyesUp is it. I worked with Justin for Thursday Nights in AI last year, and loved the experience.
Website branding and design: I worked with Seattle-based agency Bizango to update my own branding, logo, and website and had a great experience. They’re extremely responsive, affordable, and great at design, project management, and actual website creation.
Ramp: I recently switched over to Ramp for my company’s corporate cards and spend management and love it. Feel free to use my referral link and we’ll both get a $250 bonus when approved.
