I work as a VC. I've sat across the table from hundreds of founders and seen what actually moves investors. I help you navigate the raise from someone who knows how the other side thinks.
Round sizing, timing, investor targeting, narrative framing. I help you build a fundraising strategy that's grounded in how VCs actually make decisions — not how founders imagine they do.
Honest, detailed feedback before you send it out. I tell you what a VC will think when they open your deck — what lands, what kills momentum, and what's missing entirely.
Post-raise, the work doesn't stop. I help founders manage their cap table, write investor updates that build trust, and navigate board dynamics — especially in the early stages when it matters most.
We talk through your stage, sector, where you are in the fundraising journey, and what you're actually trying to achieve. Free, no strings attached.
I go through everything with VC eyes. Honest, no-filter feedback on what lands, what doesn't, and what's missing — before it goes to real investors.
Investor targeting, narrative framing, objection prep, term sheet basics. A focused working session to tighten your raise before you run it.
Available for calls as your process moves. Second opinion on term sheets, warm intros where I can make them, and a sounding board through close.
Most founders I work with are preparing their first serious raise, or have had VC conversations that haven't converted and want to understand why. Either way, the gap is usually the same: great company, wrong story or wrong room.
Send me a note or drop your deck in. I'll take a look and we can go from there — no pitch required to start the conversation.
