Backing early-stage founders.
Investing in founders who are thoughtful about the problems they solve and how they build. I come in at pre-seed and seed, often as one of the first checks in, with a focus on responsible technology and expanded access. Nearly two-thirds of the companies I've backed are female-founded.
Beyond capital, I bring a researcher’s lens to why the work matters, and for whom, and connect founders with one another, with investors who can lead their next round, and with the operators and researchers they should know.
