Evans is the founder of Exceptional Capital, which launched in 2022 among the many emerging VC firms that sprouted during the fundraising boom years.
Before pursuing a life in venture capital and tech, Evans hoped to make it to the NFL as a linebacker at the University of Michigan.
And then in 2022, Evans decided to launch Exceptional Capital and invest as a solo VC.
Exceptional CapitalBecause he's been able to increase the size of his fund, Evans has been able to expand his team.
"I could see that for Marell as well, just his work with Exceptional Capital and kind of his determination there."
