🤖 AI Activity Report
Status: low-active
AI Reasoning: Search results show investments like Sherpaa (reported 2014) and company bio references activities around 2016 (Home of Hope). I did not find any investment records or press announcing investments in the last several years (2019-2025). The most recent verifiable investment-related activity found is 2016 (building Home of Hope) and earlier investments (Sherpaa 2014). That places last known investment/activity more than 12 months ago, so classify as low-active.
Angel activity thresholds:
Low Activity – Only known angel investments more than 12 months ago.
Active – Known angel investments between the last 12 and 6 months.
Very Active – Known angel investments in the last 6 months.
