What inspired you to pursue investing?

Throughout my entire life, my goal has always been to make a difference in the world around me. Whether it’s my family, friends, community, or teams, I hope to leave things better than they were. Investing provides another avenue to do just that. Having the opportunity to impact the lives of those we partner with and the consumers that we reach is what gets me excited everyday. Working with founders and brands that are delivering better products, with superior ingredients and higher quality, allows us to change entire industries. What more could I ask for!

What’s your favorite part about being in the consumer space?

Sharing all of my favorite products! My friends and family may love me doing it as much as I do. I bring all of my favorite skincare products to my mom, my friends have been the beneficiaries of many new food and beverage products, my dad is now a craft NA beer guy and my sister’s dog only eats human grade food. There’s nothing better than trying new things and all of us coming together over our favorites. Consumer products are a way for us to bring joy into all the little moments of our lives.
