Ryan built K50 Ventures to work alongside founders from Day 0 to build consequential companies. Before launching K50, he was an entrepreneur, an investor at Blumberg Capital, and a founding partner of the venture studio Kairos HQ where he and his partners incubated Bilt Rewards and Alloy Health. Over the past decade, Ryan has backed more than 100 founders — often as the first institutional investor. His portfolio includes several companies that have scaled to $1B+ valuations, including Bilt, Groww, Self Financial, Valon, Mammoth Biosciences, and Yassir. Ryan is a graduate of the Questrom School of Management at Boston University, spent the last decade in New York City and now lives in Encinitas, CA, with his wife and three daughters.
