With experience in marketing, fundraising, and operating leadership, I am passionate about helping founders (and their startups) grow and thrive in the competitive and consuming world of early-stage venture building. As a Partner at Fireroad, I work with founders to provide feedback, capital, and connections to accelerate their ventures. Previously, I was the Chief Operating Officer at OCEAN Programs, leading the operations, communications, and earned-revenue of the organization that focused on entrepreneurs who are solving real-life problems and want to build great companies without losing their souls.The theme of my career has been joining pre-scale organizations to build a strategy, team, and human operating system to support growth. I've held senior roles in advancement and digital products at global non-profit organizations, putting to use skills in omni-channel marketing, strategic communications, and fundraising campaign management, as well as a Master's degree in Spiritual Formation and Ministry. At the end of the day, it's a gift to be with founders on their startup journey, an honor to be trusted by LPs to steward their capital, and a joy be growing personally in discipline, kindness, and courage along the way.
Listed skills include Student Counseling, Internal Communications, Writing, Teaching, and 16 others.
