Make an impact and see the world change

I founded Knightsgate Ventures in 2018 with a belief that using technology can uplift people and communities, and create social impact.  Well, after investing in a number of early stage tech startups in the last 3 years, I believe our businesses are making the impact that I envisioned.  Helping women entrepreneurs start a business, helping consumers navigate the complex world of student loans, helping create a platform for Black content, helping Seniors track their health, and so much more, and we’re just getting started.  I enjoy working with Founders, whether it’s passing along my knowledge or experiences, or connecting them with folks in my network, with the ultimate goal of making them successful as they pursue their dreams.

Prior to Knightsgate, I worked in Corporate Operations and Finance across multiple, multinational industries including Automotive, Aerospace, Electronics, Energy Services, and Consumer Goods, and obtained a MBA in Finance and a BBA in Supply Chain Management from Bauer College of Business at the University of Houston.

My other pursuits include civic (on the Board of HTXelerator, a nonprofit with a mission to identify and prepare future-focused leaders for public service), cultural (Broadway musicals and rock and roll concerts), and physical (walking, biking, skiing).

The 2020 pandemic exposed a lot of inequalities and inefficiencies locally and globally.  With a great group of Investors and a team of brilliant Founders, Knightsgate is working towards Funding and Equitable Future.
