As I reflect on this past year (2024), I’m amazed at how much can change in a short time. A year ago, stepping into #venturecapital felt like a distant dream. Today, I’m preparing to attend #JPMWeek2025, one of the most influential conferences in life sciences investing, as part of Bullpen—an incredible community of innovators and leaders. Joining this exceptional group of life science investors and CxOs is an honor. The Bullpen brings together brilliant minds to collaborate, innovate, and uplift the industry. From investor-only meetings to Bullpen Cup Pitches and sunset views at the Golden Gate Yacht Club, this is the place to be during JPM Week. Special thanks to Christiaan Engstrom for the opportunity to join Bullpen and be part of this dynamic community of life science leaders. Your belief in my ability to contribute means so much. I’m also deeply grateful to Michele Colucci, Esq. at DigitalDx Ventures for taking me under her wing and teaching me the ins and outs of venture capital with purpose and integrity. Your mentorship has been invaluable. Grateful for the amazing individuals I’ve met and excited to connect with new ones. Let’s learn, grow, and help each other thrive. 🚀 #JPM2025 #Bullpen #LifeSciences #HealthcareInnovation #VentureCapital #Biotech #MedTech #Entrepreneurship #Collaboration #Leadership #Innovation #ScalingImpact #InvestorNetworking #Healthcare #Innovation #ScalingImpact #PitchFest #GoldenGateBridge #NetworkingOpportunities
