Examples Of My Success Getting Into Deals
- I shared some fun facts on this Medium post to show how I’ve won over founders to invest.
Founders Love Working With Me
- My high conviction & high energy coupled with critical optimism and solid moral support really provide a true edge as an empathetic executive coach and cheerleader for the team.
- Besides angel investing, I was an operator for almost a decade at a self-funded and remote-only enterprise software startup with 77 fortune 100 companies as customers. Before then, I bootstrapped and later sold a hardware startup while working as a software consultant at Accenture. I know what it takes to build a high-impact company and I’m ready to help with a few extra pushes on founders’ long journey.
Excellent network of portfolio founders, founder friends,,investor friends, LPs, scouts etc.
