With over 15 years of experience in launching, scaling, and exiting successful startups, I am a Managing Director at New Columbia Capital, a firm that helps founders and early-stage companies navigate the complex financial and strategic challenges of the 21st Century economy. I leverage my extensive experience and expertise in early-stage ventures, equity crowdfunding, and innovation to provide tailored advice and support to our clients in a number of key areas.My mission is to increase founder access to growth capital through VC partnerships and regulated equity crowdfunding platforms. I have raised over $5M in funding from investors, including Kelloggs, for my own venture, Bright Greens Blenderless Smoothies, which I created and launched in 2016 and expanded into 2200 grocery stores and a national e-commerce subscription business. I have also worked with Republic.co, one of the largest equity crowdfunding platforms in the US, as a Senior Investment Manager, and with Angels and Entrepreneurs, as the Director of Deal Flow, where I found and vetted the most disruptive and interesting startups on earth and helped them crowdfund their brilliant ideas.
