About Paul Hsiao
Rebecca Lynn brings an unusual technical foundation to venture capital, having studied chemical engineering and worked in technical roles before transitioning to VC, which gives her confidence evaluating complex regulated markets like fintech and digital health. She takes a problem-first investing approach, starting with founders' specific market pain points and regulatory constraints rather than product features, and has built a reputation through early, long-term board relationships like her Series A investment in LendingClub through its IPO.
