Managing Partner
Nathan Mathews
Nathan Mathews has founded two AI-native rollups — Roofer.com and AO Swag — raising $20M+ and scaling past $30M ARR. He partners with CEOs and PE firms on the questions that move the needle: where AI actually creates enterprise value, how to allocate capital against it, and which bets compound. Through Polyshares, Nathan brings an owner's view of the P&L to middle-market companies — an operator who's done it, not a consultant reading about it.

Zak Kuzbari spent nearly three years at McKinsey before acquiring Mayer Solar and scaling it to $50M in revenue across two acquisitions. He's lived the operator's side of strategy — diligence, integration, and running the P&L. At Polyshares, he partners with CEOs and owners to find where AI moves the numbers and turn that thesis into results on the ground.
