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 the founders’ long journey.

Management fees are taken as a percentage of the total committed capital. The total management fee is paid out quarterly over the first
four years of the fund's life.
Carry
Twenty percent (20%), with an increase to twenty-five percent (25%) after the fund realizes a 3.0x return
Admin Fee (annualized)
$2.5k + 0.2% of contributed capital
Fees for each quarterly fund in the Rolling Fund Program will vary based on each quarterly fund’s capital contributions since the fee includes a flat fee component. Last quarter, this fund closed $382.45k in capital. Learn more about how to estimate your commitment’s fees at our help center.
Fund Lead Commitment
Cindy's personal subscription per quarter will be at least $2,500. Cindy will satisfy their GP commitment in part by waiving 80% of management fees otherwise owed to them by the fund.

The performance of past deals or a lead investors' track record is not a guarantee of future returns. Venture capital fund investments are inherently risky and illiquid. Such investments involve a high degree of risk and are suitable only for sophisticated and accredited investors.
AngelList and its affiliates do not provide investment advice to investors. The information on this page should not be relied upon as research, investment advice or a recommendation of any kind. Information on this page is qualified in its entirety by the fund's Limited Partnership Agreement, Private Placement Memorandum and Subscription Agreement, which should be reviewed carefully prior to making an investment decision. Please see these documents for full details regarding risks, minimum investment, fees and expenses. The Fund Lead and the fund's investment advisor have the right to waive or charge additional carry to certain investors. The fund's legal name may be different from the name used above.
This fund may accept new investors after the fund undergoes a valuation update. Certain potential investors in the fund may then have access to materially different information concerning fund value at the time of their investment.
Current or future portfolio companies in this fund may use AngelList's recruiting platform and may pay an affiliate of the fund's investment adviser for premium recruiting tools and services. This may create a potential conflict of interest for the investment adviser, which you will consent to by subscribing to the fund.
