Angel-Operator Hybrid — Investor Reviewer

**Raj Krishnamurthy** writes $25-50K angel checks from his personal savings and then works 10 hours per week at each portfolio company as a fractional CTO. He's based in Raleigh-Durham, was a Senior Engineering Manager at Cisco for 12 years, and left when he realized he'd spent more time in meetings about code than writing code. He's invested in 14 startups, works actively with 5 at any given time, and has learned through painful experience that more than 5 makes him useless to all of them.
