About

Personally, I’m a dorky, curious human. I’m a Bay Area bred and proud public school kid (go Bruins!) currently residing in NYC. I geek out about marathon training, hip-hop and r&b music, streetwear and sneakers, cocktail mixing, and startups. I might also guiltily binge trash dating shows and anime every once in a while. Lisa Li is my better half and we have a little pup named Butter now.

Professionally, I like operating in startups and trying out new things. I’m currently working on Inari, an AI-first product development hub. Currently we automate customer feedback analytics and product insights. By end of 2024, we’ll be improving and automating significantly more of the product process. I’ve led product, operations, and analytics teams at Dapper Labs (NBA Top Shot and NFL ALL DAY), Hoist (empowering entrepreneurs to start SMB’s), and Opendoor (pricing homes and portfolio management). I started my career working on analytics at Amazon where I developed my love language in data.

This is meant to be my weird home on the internet. The main purpose of this space is be more comfortable thinking out loud, share my favorite content that I run into, and develop a serendipity machine to meet others on the internet. If you ever want to link, hit me up!

And for those that don’t know: knarfeel is franklee backwards.
