David Evans Email & Phone Number

I am a seasoned technologist and serial entrepreneur with a lifelong passion for startups and a particular interest in artificial intelligence (AI). Starting my coding journey at 14, launching my first business at 19, and making my first angel investment before 30, my career has been marked by an unending pursuit of innovation.Throughout my career, I have been involved in multiple successful exits as a founder, investor, advisor, and team member, showcasing my ability to navigate the unpredictable landscape of startups successfully. I had an early exposure to AI during a project for NASA in the late 1990s, and have since integrated AI strategies in several ventures, including my company EasySeat, where predictive models played a key role in our scaling and successful exit.As the Managing Partner at Sentiero Ventures, I invest in early-stage AI-enabled SaaS companies that drive financial performance or enhance customer experiences. I bring my hands-on experience to help not only invest but also accelerate growth through strategic guidance and leveraging my professional network.Beyond my active involvement in the startup ecosystem, I also share my experiences with the future generation of entrepreneurs as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Texas' Jindal School of Management and social entrepreneurs at the United Way Social innovation accelerator.If you're interested in AI, startups, early-stage investing, or entrepreneurship, feel free to reach out.
