Hi, I’m Kristian Andersen.

Prior to High Alpha, I founded Studio Science, a leading design and innovation consultancy that I sold to private equity in 2019. I am an active angel investor and previously co-founded Gravity Ventures, a seed-stage venture fund, as well as several software companies, including Octiv, Lessonly, Visible, and Pathagility. In addition to serving on several corporate boards, I am actively involved in a number of philanthropic and nonprofit endeavors. I am married to Brandi, my bride of 24 years, and together we have six children. I prioritize my faith and family and am passionate about entrepreneurship, design, conservation, and a variety of outdoor pursuits.
