Exceptional people figure things out.

Markets change, strategies evolve and initial ideas are often wrong. We care most about people with the judgment, ambition and agency to adapt and execute.

We value independent thinking.

The best opportunities are rarely obvious to everyone at the same time. We do our own work, form our own views and are willing to act when we believe the evidence is there.
