Masters was a student at Stanford Law School in 2012 when his detailed notes on Peter Thiel’s (co-founder of PayPal) class "Computer Science 183: Startup" became an internet sensation. Masters and Thiel have transformed those class notes into a New York Times bestseller: "Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future."
Zero to One is about learning from Silicon Valley why and how the most valuable businesses in the world are the ones that solve problems in new ways rather than competing on well-trodden paths.
Previously, Masters co-founded Judicata, a legal research technology startup, and worked at Box and Founders Fund. He was named one of Forbes’ top 30 under 30 in 2014.
