Chris Sparling

In 2014, Andrew and I started Tiny together. I now serve as Vice Chairman and have been involved in most of our deals over the years, most recently our acquisition of Serato. My path to investing started much earlier, at 14, mostly as an attempt to get my dad’s attention, and I’ve been making marginally better decisions since.
Outside of Tiny, I own a few restaurants, which have been an efficient lesson in hubris and what a bad business looks like. I also enjoy speaking at universities, largely because it forces me to read more and clarify what I think I know.
I’m an avid reader and go through more books than is probably useful. I have two boys, ages 6 and 9, who keep me busy and do a good job of keeping me honest.
