The best raises rarely follow an obvious path. The founders who close them aren't the ones with the most connections. They're the ones with a clear strategy, the nerve to go after the right investors, and the patience to keep going.
I help ambitious founders build that strategy, from the first investor list to the signed term sheet.

About

I help ambitious founders raise pre-seed through Series A. I've been in your seat: I built a company with no network and figured out how to get into the rooms that mattered.
Over eight years as a founder, I raised $25M across multiple rounds. Now I bring that same playbook to every founder I work with: a clear strategy, the right investors, and a way in to each one.
