My path in life has been vibrant, unconventional, and defined by experimenting with what’s possible. I’ve served as COO of a media and book publishing company, developed partnerships between universities around the world to facilitate international exchange, and even led marine conservation programs on a remote island in Fiji.
Throughout each of these chapters, I’ve had the opportunity to orchestrate communities where ideas, connections, and impact compound. I believe authentic relationships are the cornerstone of a meaningful life, and there are few things more powerful or expansive than shared knowledge.
I also love designing unparalleled experiences and building seamless operations to support them. It’s not just about efficiency and effectiveness for me (though I can geek out over those too); it’s about maximizing the precious time of each person we serve. Helping people experience what’s most meaningful in their lives is at the heart of everything I do.
That’s why it’s a dream to serve as First Round’s Head of Enablement & Operations, where my focus is to bring incredible people onto our team, and create the conditions for First Rounders to have the greatest impact as we build and serve the strongest community of entrepreneurs.
Outside of work, you can find me on the trails of the Marin Headlands, taking in a sunset from Muir Beach, grilling with family and friends on the deck, or curled up by the fire with a good book.
