Venture Capital

I navigated the transition from ops and engineering in venture-backed startups to invest at Antler. I had the chance to work across a few different funds in the process of my pivot, and as a result I gained a broad perspective of the VC ecosystem and how to break through the common barriers. I am passionate about helping aspiring VCs and founders navigate the complexities of the industry. Let's connect to discuss how I can support your journey into venture capital!

With over a decade of experience in the VC industry, I've had the privilege of partnering with and supporting over 30 companies as a board member and investor. As a former Partner at Lerer Hippeau, I led investments in both enterprise and consumer companies, and currently, I advise and invest across the startup ecosystem. My background includes roles at top firms like FirstMark Capital and Flybridge Capital Partners, where I honed my skills in sourcing, diligence, and portfolio support. I've coached 20+ individuals, helping them navigate the complexities of venture capital recruiting and career.

I bring over 8 years of comprehensive venture capital, operations, and investment experience across multiple stages and sectors. As a Venture Associate at Rethink Impact, I was team member number four, so I understand the ins and outs of what is required to build and run a venture capital firm, from due diligence to writing investment memos, building cap tables, deal sourcing, fundraising, and portfolio construction. I currently serve on the Investment Committee for Resilient Ventures where I continue to evaluate and invest in early-stage technology companies. With dual Harvard graduate degrees (MBA and Public Policy) and experience as Chief of Staff at a venture-backed fintech company, I understand both the investor and entrepreneur perspectives. I've personally navigated career transitions within the VC ecosystem and can provide practical guidance on breaking into the industry, advancing within firms, and building the skills that matter most to investment committees and senior partners.
