🎙️ Check out my conversation about fundraising and founding Zest with Jason Calacanis featured on This Week in Startups. I am honored to partner with and learn from someone as influential as Jason. 📈 To summarize an hour in two sentences: None of it is possible without a fantastic team (Savannah Cooper, Julie Ottusch (Monrad), Graham Kirstein, Amrit Saini, Alex Martinez). And there is no silver bullet for a first time fundraiser. Thank you so much to Bob Moesta and Neal Sales-Griffin for teaching me about demand-side thinking, causal systems, and prototyping to learn, all of which Jason and I had a chance to discuss. 🍴😋🍴 Hoping the conversation can be tactical for others and can't wait to continue to change how people think about food!
