Hello, I’m Eddie. I’m a Founder living in San Francisco.

Previously, I founded Fam. Fam was a group video calling app to make new friends and was used by more than 5 million teenagers in the United States. Fam was part of Y-Combinator’s Summer ’17 batch and raised $15M+ from Founder’s Fund, Greylock Partners, Social Capital, and others. Fam was acquired by Eventbrite in 2023.

Before that, I was a Product Manager at Facebook in Menlo Park, California working on Messenger. While at Facebook I monetized Messenger from $0 to over $100M annually, helped launched the Messenger Bot Platform, and was the first Product Manager to lead mobile for News Feed.

I graduated with honors from Dartmouth College in 2013 with a double-major in Economics and Computer Science, and graduated from Phillips Academy Andover in 2009. Before Facebook, I spent time in technology M&A at The Blackstone Group, corporate development at The Walt Disney Company, and in quantitative trading at Citigroup in Hong Kong . In college, I also founded an educational gaming company and raced sailboats in the NCAA Division I Ivy League conference. In my free time I love writing, reading and building things.
