I am an early stage startup investor, design-thinker, product strategist, and storyteller.
I spend my days investing and building consumer technology companies for the sake of people, not for the sake of technology.
I spend my days investing and building consumer technology companies for the sake of people, not for the sake of technology.
Currently, I work at Rokk3r Labs as a partner leading the Think division, and at Level Ventures running consumer tech investing. My life’s work is committed to investing and helping founders build empathetic technology products that make human life better.
Previously, I was a co-founder and CEO of Bib + Tuck. And before that, I spent two years doing Investment Banking at Barclays Capital.
In my spare time, I write about humanizing tech, building the future, personal growth, and raising children. I also post a bunch of selfies and baby/toddler photos.
I was born and raised in Colombia, educated in Rhode Island, trained in NYC, and developing my life’s work in Miami.
