Hi! My name is Katherine.

I am a web3/ crypto investor. I spend the majority of my time as a Venture Partner at Archetype, an early stage focused venture capital firm focused on investing in the decentralized future.  

I care a lot about lowering the barriers to entry into crypto by way of education and spend a lot of time thinking about how to build a more inclusive future within web3.

I have also long advocated for sensible regulations in crypto, and hope to see a regulatory environment in the US that is both encouraging to entrepreneurs and protects consumers— this is why I am also spending time as the first Research Fellow at the Crypto Council for Innovation.

Some other places I’ve worked at: 

...Coinbase
...Messari
...Notation capital

in my spare time, i’m a huge gamer (playstation + switch) and spend a lot of time playing open-world single player rpgs (favs: botw, rdr2, animal crossing, ghost of tsushima, and many many more). i have lived in nyc for the past 10 years (going on 11!), but i grew up moving between california, kunming, and hong kong. i am fluent in english, mandarin, and (some) cantonese.
