Startup Coaches, Events, and Resources

With years of hands-on entrepreneurial experience, I bring a deep understanding of what it takes to build, scale, and sustain a business. As the Co-founder & CCO of S2S Dynamics, a circular economy startup tackling e-waste through tech-driven solutions, I have led commercial strategy, partnerships, and market positioning to drive growth and impact. Prior to this, I co-founded and scaled a renewable energy company to million-dollar revenues, overseeing marketing, strategic alliances, and business development across multiple markets. My journey has given me firsthand exposure to the challenges of fundraising, go-to-market strategy, and sustainable business models—insights I now share as an adjunct professor mentoring startups and executives at IE University. Whether you're an aspiring founder refining your idea, a startup looking to scale, or a corporate innovator driving intrapreneurship, I can help you navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship with practical guidance and actionable strategies.

Welcome to my profile! As the Co-Founder and former CEO of Moringa School, I led a team that trained over 4,000 students with an impressive 85% job placement rate, transforming higher education in Africa. My entrepreneurial journey has been recognized by Forbes, Fast Company, and the World Economic Forum, among others. I am passionate about empowering entrepreneurs and have coached 18 individuals to successfully launch and grow their ventures. Whether you're looking to refine your business strategy or navigate the challenges of scaling, I'm here to help you achieve your entrepreneurial goals. Let's connect and take your business to the next level!

I provide independent strategy, solutions, and coaching for entrepreneurs so they can grow their businesses to the next level. I am passionate about working with innovative entrepreneurs and startups to develop unique strategies to grow and fund their businesses. Whether you are a startup on the track for traditional venture-capital financing or an entrepreneur on a more offbeat path, I can collaborate with you to develop and implement a creative and practical strategy for success. I also mentor and coach with a number of organizations that develop startups including Techstars Los Angeles, the Preccelerator, and the Consortium for Technology & Innovation in Pediatrics, working with their portfolio companies as they prepare to present to investors. In addition, I have advised entrepreneurial programs at schools including the Incubator School, Marlborough School, and Project ECHO. For seven years, I ran the coaching program at Women Founders Network, an accelerator that connects women building high-growth businesses with the tools and resources they need to achieve business success. Since 2013, WFN alumnae have raised over $100 million in funding. If I look familiar, it may be because I speak regularly on issues related to startups, tech and women in business and have appeared in publications including The Huffington Post, Entrepreneur.com, Inc.com, Fortune, CNBC, StartupNation, Women 2.0, and GenHERation.

I started my career at Airbnb, worked in Venture Capital, and now run my own VC-backed startup. I've raised $4M+, built our company into 7 figures, and was awarded Forbes 30 under 30. I've done everything from building 0-1 bootstrapped, raising multiple rounds of funding, scaling and building a team, navigating through crisis and more.
