About Jareau

šŸ‘‹šŸ¾ Hi! Iā€™m Jareau, a writer and entrepreneur whoā€™s spent the last 15 years building commerce and payment products. The majority of my career was focused on building two venture-backed payments infrastructure companies (Balanced and Finix). Iā€™ve also spent a significant portion of my career solving commerce-related problems at companies like Milo.com (acquired by eBay in 2010), Tilt (acquired by Airbnb in 2016), and Pinterest.Ā I currently do platform product development at Arcadia. You can learn more about me here.

Iā€™m active on Threads and publish an annual review on my personal site, where I write about music, soccer, coffee, film, and comic books from time to time.


Consulting

I am not taking on new consulting clients at this time.


Investing

I donā€™t actively invest in individual companies but do advise a small number of companies in exchange for equity. Iā€™m also a Limited Partner in several early-stage venture capital funds and am open to investing in moreā€”especially those led by emerging fund managers.
