My regular readers have wondered where I’ve been. I haven’t been posting and tweeting much over the last year… and I’ve received so many emails I decided it’s time to let the cat out of the bag…
I’ve been hanging out in Brooklyn!
At co-working spaces, incubators, lofts in DUMBO and Williamsburg, at meetups… talking face-to-face with people and loving it!
Getting offline screen and into the world has brought about many changes:
- I’m now managing director at a Brooklyn startup accelerator.
- Became organizer of Brooklyn Startups.
- Met many talented people in the angel, VC, and tech startup communities.
- Gained so much traction for the idea… we launched a Brooklyn innovation event to help the borough prosper.
Why Brooklyn?
As a graduate of Pratt Institute, Brooklyn Tech, and St. Augustine’s Prep (formerly at Marcy and Lafayette Ave)… I’ve been blessed with one of the finest educations you can get anywhere in the world… all within three miles of my childhood home. So why not Brooklyn!
It’s an honor to give back any way I can… stay tuned for lots more on this.

Brooklyn is where it’s at! What took you so long?

Been percolating for the last three years… finally started to boil over!
Lisa Chu says
DK, you’ve been so helpful to me over the years.
How can we help with your Brooklyn initiative?
D.K. says
I will be in touch soon. Thank you for offering!

I’m convinced my startup wouldn’t have happened anywhere else. Lots of good talent in BK but we need more. I hope technology education is part of your new thing
