At Siris, Sipprelle served as Investment Team lead and board member for Constant Contact, EFI, and Newfold Digital, and previously played similar roles in Siris investments in Transaction Network Services and Intralinks. Earlier in his career, he worked as an associate at a technology-focused private equity firm, identified by Mergr as Vector Capital, and began in technology investment banking at Lazard.
Sipprelle earned an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School, where he was a Baker Scholar, and graduated from Harvard University with an A.B. in Economics.
