Sean O'Malley

I'm currently helping to launch new mobile and internet concepts at Venrock's entrepreneur launch pad. Working side-by-side with entrepreneur's in residence I get my hands dirty to germinate, launch and secure funding.

When all is said and done I'm a product and marketing guy. I've worked on some of the largest consumer internet properties around the globe including Yahoo! Messenger, Yahoo! Answers, Yahoo! Front-page, Yahoo! Video and Yahoo! News.

I love remarkable products and passionate teams.
