Real world update from a @DayOneD1 Fellow last week. “we’re on our way to 2x revenue in March. After 2xing revenue in Feb.” 🤯 This is a DTC brand, huge category, differentiated product, very early. Any pre seed investors / angels want to connect?

I believe that underrepresented founders are the most undervalued asset class in the U.S. today. Investors are starting to realize that diversity is not charity — it’s economic opportunity. #VentureCapital

Hosted my first Investment DAO meet & greet today and am blown away by the curiosity-and-collaboration-first mindset everyone came to the table with. So many good questions, thoughts, convos. Thought I'd share some fun facts & takeaways from each individual & org 🧵👇🏽

Pre-seed investing is my favorite because you're literally helping put incredible people & their dreams in business.

Can’t wait for this one, who’s super early (like so early you still have another job) and wants to plug in with others in the same spot?

I’m new to VC and to be transparent, I get super nervous when I meet founders. They’re brilliant and courageous folks. And I just hope I can hear their vision and articulate it to sell internally.
