Mitchell Wakefield

About

I'm a product advisor, investor, and new media guy. I lead the X division at Golden Egg Media, where I help founders, tech companies and venture capital firms refine how they show up online. I'm also a scout at a16z and a part-time product advisor at Kalshi.

Previously I spent a decade in product and UX research, at FanDuel Casino, CloudKitchens (an Atoms company), Resolve.ai and NHS Digital.

My work sits at the intersection of human-computer interaction, online distribution, and capital. Helping good ideas, stories, and products find the right people.

Born and raised in Canada, I've lived in Milan, Paris, Leeds, Los Angeles, and now Atlanta.
