About Alex Johnson
I\'m now running my fintech company, Velvet; and uniting my wide network of fund managers, family offices, venture capitalists, and institutional investors to create a seamless marketplace where information and transparency take precedence. My goal is to meet as many people who are building, shaping, and investing in the future - in order to create an ecosystem of positive downstream effects that improves the delta in private markets. I\'ve been a serial founder and trader my entire life and have a background in computer science and finance. I ran a video production company, a coffee truck, and quant fund that has now run for 4 years and generated quadruple digit returns.
