Venture Capital Coaches

As an angel investor in Latin America, I bring a unique blend of experiences that position me to support early-stage startups. Having transitioned from a career in professional sports to tech, I understand the challenges of navigating change and seizing new opportunities. My background in building businesses and content strategies across Latin America gives me a deep understanding of the region's unique market dynamics. I also run a blog, Venture Capital Mx, where I interview founders and investors in Mexico, which helps me stay connected to the ecosystem and share valuable insights. My network of mentors, founders, and industry experts allows me to connect entrepreneurs with the right resources. This combination of resilience, strategic insight, and a strong support network enables me to provide meaningful value to the startups I invest in.

I began my venture capital career at Sequoia Capital, where I learned directly from some of the industry’s best—gaining firsthand insight into how top firms identify and support exceptional founders. I went on to receive additional training through a selective venture scout program affiliated with Accel, Lightspeed Venture Partners, and Sequoia, which sharpened my ability to assess early-stage opportunities and develop a strong investment thesis. Today, I bring that experience into my work as an angel investor, backing founders who are building with intention and ambition. As the first transgender woman to work in the venture capital industry, I also understand what it takes to navigate nontraditional paths and succeed in competitive, high-barrier spaces. If you're looking to break into VC or grow a meaningful career in the ecosystem, I’m here to help you move strategically—and unapologetically—toward your goals.

I broke into venture capital when recruiters told me I couldn’t. I made a complete pivot from investor relations into investing — without a traditional on-paper profile — and landed roles at both a top growth-stage fund in Europe and a leading early-stage firm in New York. There’s a strategy to breaking into VC that goes far beyond resume buzzwords or cold emails. It’s about positioning, pattern-matching, and communicating exactly the kind of investor you’ll be — clearly and compellingly. Most candidates approach the process passively. I’ll help you play offense. Whether you're pre-MBA, pivoting from finance or ops, or trying to stand out in a sea of similar profiles, I know how to help you shape your story, ace interviews, and get the offer. This is a relationship-driven industry — and I’ll coach you like someone who’s navigated it firsthand, not just watched from the sidelines.

I worked in investment banking and growth equity for several years and have coached numerous candidates for jobs in these industries. I was actively involved with my firms' recruiting and hiring decisions and understand the process thoroughly; I was hired by the University of Michigan career center to coach students applying for investment banking jobs and have reviewed hundreds of resumes, cover letters and mock interviews; I have also spent many years working with non-profits such as Synergist to mentor college women interested in business and finance. I take a hands-on approach and strive to help every one of my clients reflect their best true potential.

With over two decades of experience in the finance and investment sectors, I bring a wealth of knowledge to aspiring venture capitalists. As a Managing Partner at Moser Capital, I have honed my skills in market expansion, sales optimization, and strategic partnerships, helping companies achieve their growth objectives. My tenure at firms like Blackstone and Robeco has equipped me with deep insights into private equity and capital acquisition. Whether you're looking to break into venture capital or enhance your investment strategies, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.
