I’m Ted Wint, an investor at Gold House Ventures, the leading early-stage fund backing Asian Pacific founders shaping the future of culture and commerce. I lead our accelerator and work closely with our portfolio to drive growth, strategy, and market readiness. Based in San Francisco, I focus on investing in bold ideas and mission-driven teams building at the intersection of brand, community, and innovation.

Previously, I was a founding member and operations lead at CloudRetail (a CloudKitchens company), where I launched and scaled a rapidly growing global urban fulfillment network that unlocked new markets for consumer brands across the U.S. and Canada. Before that, I led an operations and strategy team at Winc, a modern winery with a direct connection to the consumer, and before that, I managed operations at Tapcheck Inc., an early-wage access FinTech startup. Let’s connect on LinkedIn.

I'm active on the Dornsife Alumni Advisory Council as the Strategic Planning Committee Chair and I also serve as a Board Member in the SF Global Shaper Hub for the World Economic Forum. Previously, I led the Marketing Committee on the USC Young Alumni Council and Vice Curatorship at the LA Global Shapers Hub. I’m passionate about the intersection of venture, brand strategy, and the future of consumer. Always up for a conversation on startups, consumer trends, or a hit on the tennis court (or the slopes).

I occasionally write about culture, ideas and other topics I'm interested in. Read about it here.

I'm a graduate of the University of Southern California with a B.A. in International Relations (Global Business). I am originally from Rangoon, Burma, and grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area.
