Bio

What does it take to help women entrepreneurs secure $10B in funding? This is my mission.

Over the last year, I have helped source over $1B in investment capital.

I support women entrepreneurs to secure the funding they need to not just dream big but to build empires.

My journey started at age 10, hustling with a paper round, proving that entrepreneurial spirit is ignited early.

Fast forward 40 years, and I'm now a seasoned CEO, built 5 businesses, written 2 books, raised a family, and lived a pretty interesting life.
