Ari’s interdisciplinary background as an engineer, investor and builder allows her to effortlessly transition across different frontier technologies. Nothing excites her more than seeing the potential in founders who are reimagining the status quo, turning paradigms on their head, and seeking to drive well-being on a mass scale. Right now, she is especially curious about spatial computing, artificial wombs, decentralized AI, neuromorphic computing, regenerative medicine and anything that enables cleaner air, water & food.

Prior to joining Bison Ventures,she spent five years at Braemar Energy Ventures, an early pioneer in climate and sustainability venture capital. She also spent three years leading acquisitions and development of US hospitality real estate at a family office,helping to build out the firm’s billion-dollar international hotel platform.

In her spare time, Ari can be found on a Malibu beach or mountain with her dog, dreaming up creative projects while listening to her song du jour on repeat or a discourse on the nature of reality.

Ari has a B.S. degree in Biomedical Engineering from Brown University, a M.S. degree in Engineering Green Technology from USC, and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
