In my 20s, I jumped out of a hedge fund and dove headfirst into entrepreneurship at the height of the Great Recession. What started as a humble MySpace page for my sister’s art became a breakthrough model for how pop-culture artists could build real, sustainable income.

That experience set the tone for my path: I’ve always had a sharp instinct for positioning innovative creators, founders, and brands—and for seeing opportunities others overlook. I learned to combine strategic foresight with experimentation, emerging technologies, and more inclusive economic models, long before they were widely accepted.

Those early bets revealed a larger pattern: the possibility of a more accessible, human-centered kind of economic success. I saw people using their creativity, conviction, and the shifting digital landscape to build wealth on their own terms, and aligning ambition with authenticity.

That insight led me into fintech, where I helped launch the real estate crowdfunding industry. I was one of three women in founder or executive roles at the time, and I led the first-ever crowdfunded Series A for a crowdfunding company. I became known for creating demand and raising tens of millions from accredited investors online, opening access to investments previously reserved for the few. Over the course of my career, I’ve raised more than $500M across private markets.

My work naturally evolved into capital architecture—designing the systems that shape how capital flows. Today, I help private investment firms turn strategy, story, and structure into aligned, predictable capital formation that builds trust, expands access, and supports long-term value.

My passion for embracing change as a catalyst for empowerment has led me into leadership, advisory, investing, and collaboration with founders and firms committed to purposeful growth. I care deeply about inclusivity in the places where wealth is built and about expanding financial agency through education, literacy, and aligned decision-making.

My mission is to advance innovative economic models and empower individuals to trust themselves—cultivating confidence, personal agency, and the ability to use money as a tool for powerful, positive change.
