United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a venture capital professional and startup founder with 8+ years building financial and operational processes from zero, leading fundraising, and scaling digital businesses. I have a track record of cultivating high-value relationships, managing private-market portfolios, and executing diligence that blends financial and impact metrics.
As an operating co-founder and former Head of Operations at a seed-stage fund, I raised multi-million dollar rounds, drove 300%+ agency revenue growth, directed cross-functional teams, and played lead roles in investments and strategic partnerships. I bring hands-on experience in founder/CEO engagement, fintech and banking operations, due diligence, and emerging technologies including AI and immersive experiences.
