HELLO!

My name is William Simon Wolf / שמעון זאב (né Strimling), but I usually go by
willium online. You can find me on 𝕏 or LinkedIn. I live in New York these
days, but San Francisco is the the center of my world, and Tel Aviv has my
heart.

I’m the founder and CEO of Gestalt. We build software that helps businesses
better understand people. I like to think of our product as a Human Data
Interface — a new kind of tool that reimagines how we think about data as
humans, and how we think about humans as data.

My previous startup, Bayes, built a product that allowed non-technical people to
automatically generate the most effective charts and communicate their insights
with interactive stories. Bayes was backed by Y Combinator and Amplify Partners.
It was subsequently acquired by Airtable.

Before Bayes, I worked at Twitter on conversational health, helping to combat
online abuse and misinformation.

Erstwhile, I cut my teeth on product marketing and analytics at Oscar Health,
international development research at the Harvard Kennedy School, visual data
journalism at FiveThirtyEight, social products at tbh, mobile canvassing at
Change.org, and what would become UberEATS at Uber.

I studied Computer Science with an emphasis on Data Science at the University of
Washington in Seattle. Between classes, I spent my time working in the
Interactive Data Lab, assisting with data visualization research that would
eventually inspire Bayes.

I really enjoy connecting with people who are working on ambitious projects.
While I only advise or invest in startups when I think I can uniquely assist,
I'm always on the lookout for co-conspirators, thought partners, and friends.

I love to travel and meet strangers, and I’m an avid tea-drinker, beach-runner,
weight-lifter, sunset-watcher, and book-reader.

If you’d like to, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
