My background

I’m an operator turned VC. I’m passionate about supporting entrepreneurs. I love my work and people driven to change the world.

Early in my career, I started pursuing a career in defense & government. For many reasons, I realized that it wasn’t the right fit for me. I started working in tech first as a “connector” then moved into product growth & driving adoption through strategic partnerships. Always being the calculated risk taker I am, I founded my own software company in the brand ambassador / influencer marketing space. After a few years, I led the company through to its acquisition. I spent some time at the acquiring company before jumping into the venture world. Now, I’m fortunate to pursue my passion: supporting high growth founders in Upstate NY (my hometown) through a non-profit (UVC) and investing in world-changing B2B SaaS companies through StartFast Ventures.

I love traveling, spinning, & visiting historic sites. I’m also arguably the world’s greatest aunt.
