This week I had the honor of co-hosting a dinner for Immigrant Founders with my fellow Venture Partner, Brendan Playford along with Alexis Zamira Maciel and Manan M. of Unshackled Ventures at the #SFTechWeek. We brought together 15 powerhouse entrepreneurs building the future of everything from AI first shopping experiences to cheaper healthcare. The sheer passion and intention to support fellow founders in the room expanded my energy!! The unwavering determination, diverse perspectives and innovative spirit of founders was truly inspiring. Grateful for this community and to be building alongside such inspiring, resilient humans. If you're an immigrant founder looking for friends & family capital from investors who care about you & your ambition irrespective of the fact that your story started elsewhere- I'm happy to help make a connection. #ThankYou #ImmigrantFounders #Innovation #Resilience #UnshackledVenturePartner
