Back in the day, I started out as a simple tech writer.
I say simple, but I actually graduated college as the most followed student on Linkedin in the world and became a 3x LinkedIn Top Voice. I ended up running a personal brand consultancy for 8 years thanks to this.
Thank you Motherboard, Cosmopolitan, and Inc. for the shoutouts. My mom thought the features were so cool.

Marketing & Partnerships at 500 Global VC *
After a short stint in entertainment (a story for another time with a glass of wine), I joined 500 Global VC.
Little did I know I’d end up leading their 1st virtual demo day, launching their Black founders and female founders hubs, and leading much of their content marketing and partnerships.

From there, I helped one of 500’s portfolio companies make history.
I joined the Long-Term Stock Exchange as the second dedicated marketer, leading their go-to-market strategy for their SMB product, content for their first listings on the exchange, and the operations for the Open Cap Table Initiative, uniting 30+ industry leaders to create a standardized cap table format with 90% market adoption.

Ironically, I then helped another 500 Global VC portfolio company scale their growth.
At Mercury, I built and scaled the Raise program, growing a 900+ founder community and building tools to help founders understand their metrics.
And now, I’m on my most ambitious adventure yet.
Head of Startups and Partnerships at Rho
Now at Rho, I lead a team focused on high-impact partnerships and events that bring together the top founders, VCs, and operators in the industry.
