Welcome to my profile! With extensive experience in venture capital and strategic finance, I am here to help you navigate the complexities of the investment landscape. As a Venture Partner at VU Venture Partners, I source and evaluate startups across various industries, providing me with a keen insight into what makes a successful pitch and investment. My background includes roles at Microsoft, Data Collective, and J.P. Morgan, where I honed my skills in finance and investment strategy.

I've been on both sides of the venture table. I made Partner at 7BC Venture Capital before I turned 24, one of the youngest at an established global fund, where I led the Silicon Valley investment team and worked across the full investment lifecycle: sourcing, diligence, portfolio support, and fundraising. I've also been the founder asking for the check. I've founded three companies, one of which raised $11M at a $100M valuation, and built an independent startup fundraising firm that reached four countries in its first year before I exited in 2024. Earlier I started in institutional capital at Hall Capital Partners. Today I run Inside Round Advisory, working with pre-seed through Series A founders on narrative clarity, investor positioning, and fundraising strategy. My focus is capability transfer through a systematic approach: clients leave as skilled fundraisers who understand the game, not people who got through one raise because someone did it for them. If you're breaking into venture, I'll show you how to do it, how to best network and leverage that, and how decisions actually get made inside a fund. If you're raising, I'll show you where your story loses an investor before you're in front of one.

I’m one of the youngest impact investors working in the industry today—and I broke into the industry without an MBA or a finance background. I started my career in government and nonprofits, so I know exactly what it takes to navigate an unconventional path into VC and build credibility from day one. Over the past five years, I’ve: -Been named Twice to ImpactAlpha’s Top 10 Voices in impact investing -Lectured at Harvard, Columbia, and the University of Chicago on sustainable finance -Launched a health-tech startup on stage with Chelsea Clinton at the Clinton Global Initiative - Served on a City of Chicago committee convening the region’s LP community, hosting breakfasts with 30+ institutional investors -Built a monthly “AI for VC Ops” working group with more than 200 investor signups -Helped launch the world’s first foundation dedicated to refugee entrepreneurs, serving as a founding investment committee member I coach aspiring impact investors because I’ve lived the nontraditional path myself—and I can help you break in, stand out, and build a mission-driven career, even if you don’t come from a traditional background.

I help people break into venture capital by combining real fund experience, deep exposure to early-stage investing, and hands-on operational context from building companies myself. I’ve worked inside VC funds, evaluated startups across multiple sectors, supported diligence processes, and built relationships throughout the ecosystem. On the operator side, I’ve founded and scaled my own startup, advised dozens of early-stage teams, and worked closely with founders on fundraising, financial analysis, storytelling, and go-to-market strategy. Because I’ve lived both sides of the table, I’m able to teach not just how to get into VC, but how to think like an investor—how to evaluate companies, form an investment thesis, communicate your judgment, and stand out in interviews. I help clients translate their background into a compelling VC narrative and build the skills, frameworks, and confidence needed to enter and thrive in the industry.
