Happy Chime day to those who celebrate (the company went public today). Congrats to the team present and past (incl. Chris Britt, Ryan K., Matthew Newcomb, and many others). It's a big day for consumer & fintech. It's also a special day for our firm. Our Acrew Capital partner Lauren Kolodny led the company's Series A-1 in 2016. On such a momentous day for the Chime team, I'm reminded that there are no overnight successes. Unique insights, even if hiding in plain sight, are hard won. The team's relentless execution and customer centricity are to credit. I'd also be remiss to not mention I'm grateful that Chime once gifted me (and Lauren and Theresia) my one and only, very cherished Patagonia zip up. I've worn it countless chilly SF mornings as my venture capital armor.
