Senior AssociateI’ve always been obsessed with technology. When my grandmother would run errands, I would have her drop me off at Best Buy, where I’d spend hours looking at different gaming consoles, cameras, and laptops. I loved watching YouTube videos from Keep Productive and MKBHD, and learning about the latest productivity tools and consumer tech.
As I grew older, I realized that the best technology products were solving core problems for users. I had the chance to partner with companies at the earliest stages at Dorm Room Fund — First Round Capital’s student venture arm — while at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School. It was here that I became obsessed with the idea of finding and partnering with founders who are building category-defining companies. Thankfully, these are the founders I get to partner with at Insight.
Prior to joining Insight in 2020, I spent time at both RapidSOS and Gladly. Outside of work, I love to play basketball, board games, and search for the best tacos in NYC.
