    Pitch decks? You got it. One pitch deck I created secured $20M for an insurance startup, another generated $29M for a food startup. I have lots of consulting experience so I promise you some beautiful decks Excel and Google Sheets help? You got it, I created my first model 22 years ago and have since created hundreds of others. Business planning? Sure thing, I'll do your market research and I'll find stuff that nobody else can anywhere on the web, or through other, more... direct, methods. I will then craft a beautiful, visual, sound business plan with real feasible financials. How about Project Management? Well, I managed some Multi-million dollar projects in F500 companies (and startups), I am a certified Scrum Master, an MBA and I know processes creation and visualization in and out. If any of this resonates with you, let's talk.

    Consultant to early stage tech companies Campaigns reaching over 100 million views lifetime Over 500 clients consulted Specialty in technology and finance I work with early-stage tech companies for marketing and business development. I love working with people who are building great technology and are passionate about their projects. Selling has always been exciting for me, ever since I was tasked with selling chocolate bars for Little League when I was 10 years old. It was like a game, and the rush of getting a YES after so many rejections was fuel to knock on the next door. As I moved into adulthood, I started my first official sales job selling cell phones in a mall kiosk. Having potential customers walking past was a much easier endeavor than knocking on doors. I eventually graduated to selling more advanced products, such as wind turbines, education services, and marketing data. Sales was always enjoyable, and I consistently performed at the #1 position on my teams. However, I saw the limiting nature of sales, as you could only sell to a restricted number of people in a day (between 10-100). The obvious evolution of any salespersons career is marketing, and I knew the transition needed to happen. When transitioning to marketing, I knew the learning curve was going to be much higher than in sales. With 6 years of sales experience under my belt, understanding buyer psychology and buyer experience was a huge advantage. However, learning technical distribution and marketing funnels was more complicated than I had expected. As with everything in life, the more complicated it is, the more I want to master it, and dedicated myself to learning as much as possible, as quickly as possible. Within the first year of transitioning to marketing, I had serviced all of 2 clients but had spent over 4,000 hours learning the tools of the trade. Going into year 2, I already had an intermediate understanding of marketing. I was able to land my first major client, which was in the cryptocurrency space in the summer of 2017. I was able to help this company raise $14 million USD in extra funds during my tenure which allowed me to grow my knowledge and skills as a marketer. I continued to work with blockchain companies for several years, although my desire shifted towards emerging technology companies. In year 3, I opened a marketing firm to service blockchain-specific companies with an emphasis on digital marketing services and PR. At this point, I had reached well over 10,000 hours of experience, making me an expert in marketing. I was able to work with many great companies across multiple industries, giving me insight into the diversity of technology companies, the missions of CEOs from different countries, and the desire to gain users and spread messages across the web. In year 4, I decided to partner with two others to start a fintech company to develop fractional ownership of high-value assets. While starting with good intentions, issues with the lead investor led to the eventual failure and closure of this company. This pushed back my advancement with my marketing firm, which I had shut down to focus primarily on this venture. In year 5, it made sense to learn from past mistakes to develop a marketing firm that focuses on startup needs and emphasizes on go-to market and fractional services. I focused on servicing clients in a consulting capacity only while developing SOPs for agency growth. In year 6, I began partnering with companies here on Upwork as well as through my own networking. My focus was honed into specifically partnering with early-stage tech companies, especially those in fintech, edtech, medtech and SaaS. Most of my services shifted primarily to marketing strategy and business development. Year 7 continued where year 6 left off, with a growth focus on partnering with companies based on their budgets. This included a higher emphasis on consultation and increased investor relations for companies looking to fundraise. Year 8 saw a shift in the way I partner with companies. Not only was I working for cash, but also equity deals to work with companies. This includes consultation, advisory and exploring board positions. The shift towards equity allows for a personal stake businesses and increased chance of success. Going into year 9, I am continuing my partnerships with early-stage tech companies for marketing strategy, investor-focused services, business development, buyers journey mapping, sales development, fractional services, campaign deployment, marketing team growth, and revenue generation. I am extremely comprehensive in my approach and ensure that all bases are covered. I am also working on several projects outside of my work with clients, including a mobile application and a platform for early-stage companies.

    I know what investors are looking for, having been a venture capital investor focussed on early stage technology investments (Seed to Series B) in San Francisco. If you need help with not just your materials but also your narrative and storytelling, I can help transform your pitch from good to great. Whether this is your first fundraise or you are looking to secure follow on funding, I can guide you through the process. I have screened hundreds of companies and have been very fortunate to invest in and work with portfolio companies who have successfully exited as well as secured follow on funding. I have also consulted multinational corporations, helping them solve innovation challenges and in particular connecting them to startups to address their problem statements. As a Founder I understand the struggle from the other side and use that empathy to inform my approach with startup teams. In total I have 10 years experience - as an Investor, Consultant, Founder and Advisor to the tech startup world as well as various roles in Investment Banking in my formative years. I specialise across the startup/venture capital/venture builder/corporate innovation curve, solving problems, setting strategy and enabling teams for success. (i) consulting startups on pitch deck, business plan and financials (ii) ad hoc strategic projects for startups (iii) VC as a service to micro VCs or those looking to access venture capital as an asset class (family offices, HNWs, institutions) (iv) venture building with individuals or corporations to test the feasibility of new concepts (v) innovation consultancy to corporations at the early stages of their innovation life cycle and how to effectively work with startups (vi) building out/developing CVC funds I bring the tenacity, problem solving and optimism of a Founder, market/competitive analysis and critical thinking of an Investor, as well as the financial analysis, diligence and scrutiny of a Banker. --------- Startups - I help founding teams with their materials and messaging to clearly communicate their vision, product and strategy with investors and other key stakeholders (more often than not in advance of fundraising). Often this is a review and complete deconstruction of pitch deck, financials, business plan and marketing materials. I also engage in ad hoc strategic projects and general product/ business growth strategy. Venture Capital - I support micro VCs and individuals/institutions looking to access Venture Capital as an asset class, either on a deal-by-deal basis or a more formalised process of establishing/reorganising an existing fund. From strategy, sourcing and due diligence through to execution and portfolio management, I am involved throughout the process. Furthermore in the fundraising stage, guiding my clients with the target raise, LP strategy as well as operational structure to execute against the fundraise target. Venture Building - I turn disruptive concepts into reality, whether it be working with an individual creator/founder on a pet project or an institution as part of an innovation strategy. Typically my clients have amazing ideas but not necessarily the time or expertise to critically evaluate the feasibility of their concept. In the case of corporate clients, the challenge is often how to build a new product or process outside the confines of corporate bureaucracy. My process is phased and typically follows these steps: Ideation, Market Mapping, Problem Statement formation, User profile and discovery, Design / MVP, Go to Market Strategy, Fundraise Strategy, Customer Acquisition, Fundraise, Scale sales and marketing, Follow on Fundraise strategy. Corporate Innovation - I work with corporations to help them understand which innovations are likely to have the biggest impact on their industry as well as their individual business operations/units. Furthermore how to critically analyse if they should build new technologies, partner with an existing provider or buy a solution (e.g. acquire a startup) More often than not, I work with corporates who are earlier in their innovation lifecycle to guide them through understanding what it really means to work with startups. My process involves: Setting an overall innovation strategy; Aligning senior management, business unit heads and team members; Communication (internally - how to spread innovation as well as excite/incentivise employees and how to communicate externally that they are open to innovation and collaboration with startups); Implementation (how to work with startups) in order to effectively embrace disruption; Mitigation - what to avoid and how companies so often get it wrong. The key principles are always: senior management buy in, business unit inclusion from the start and an allocated budget to deploy.

The document quality you may need differs depending on the document's purpose.

    I empower ambitious women entrepreneurs to gain clarity, build confidence, launch and grow their business. My clients are battling self-doubt and uncertainty. They know that they have a unique business to present to the world but yet fall short in growing. They experience limiting beliefs, frustration in the process, not having the right mindset to launch their business and be successful. That is where I come in, I bridge the gap between unawareness and being aware. I help my clients see the best of themselves by diving deep into their business fundamentals and laying down the foundation. I tend to tell my clients you cannot start building the doors on your new home without the floor, you'll fall through. Therefore we have to start at the bottom first to understand the direction in where we want to grow. I am that voice of reasoning to help them understand where they are and where they want to go. By having one on one sessions we work through each phase of the business step by step, week by week, for 6 months or until we have reached our desired goal. I believe that every adult needs counseling and every entrepreneur needs a coach. I don't think we understand just how hard it can be trying to navigate life on our own. The way trends happen and marketing change like the weather I feel we need to be held accountable for our actions in order to get to a place of growth and success. I feel as a mindset and accountability coach, I help make a difference in entrepreneurs lives.I empower ambitious women entrepreneurs to gain clarity, build confidence, launch and grow their business.
