Hedge Fund Manager
CurrentI manage Climbing Rose Capital, a hedge fund that invests long and short primarily in small capitalization stocks, mostly of US-based companies. I have a particular focus on the interactive entertainment industry, but will invest in any type of company that I feel I understand and that I believe offers exceptional risk/reward characteristics. The fund seeks to hold a small number of large positions at any one time in companies in which I have personally done deep bottom up research and believe that the risk/reward is powerfully in my favor. Though the fund seeks to generate superior returns annually, my primary concern is to avoid significant permanent losses of capital. As such, if the opportunity set appears unattractive, the fund may hold large cash balances for significant periods of time. These times are not considered failures, but a necessary component of a process that requires time to unfold. The fund's performance has meaningfully exceeded any relevant benchmarks since its inception, and has done so without leverage and generally hedged.
