I am delighted to share that @JasonPritz @Ksq1 & I have launched a new VC firm @53Stations to partner w/ exceptional entrepreneurs from seed to series B. Supported by The Pritzker Organization, we bring their 60-years of building market-leading businesses to the venture ecosystem

@ankurnagpal HomeCloud is in the early days of building this! gethomecloud.com

A product I would pay a lot of money for: a dashboard for my home Like most other clueless millennials, I completely underestimated what a PITA home ownership is I would pay $10K+ a year for a company to come in and: - Inspect my home and create a dashboard with the different components - Let me see what's going on under the hood, see what needs maintenance or replacement, and with 1-click be able to set those up - I spend a lot of time finding specialists for everything - electrician, plumber, handyman (all of whom are likely fleecing me) - I'd love to consolidate it to a trusted service - Upsell me even more anytime I want to do a major renovation While not a trivial business to set up, LTV's would likely be super high as there is massive lock-in If you're building this, I'd love to be your customer and investor!

Since 2019, our all-female and operator-heavy angel community at @TheCouncilCap has quietly been joining cap tables. Today, we are in Forbes announcing our venture arm, The Council Fund 🔥 *raising under 506c*

@anarghya503 Congratulations, mama! 💗💗💗

I’m back from maternity leave folks! Fired 🔥 up to keep investing in the best consumer healthcare companies, especially after some of the healthcare experiences I had the last few months 😳🙈 & thx for your patience & support as I figure out this honor of being a mom of two!

1/ shamanism, influencers, and capitalism cults what do the oracle of delphi, kim kardashian, dogecoin, berkshire hathaway, and the stock market have in common? so much more than you could imagine 🤌

@eldavis8 @gabbycazeau @HarryStebbings @Adrianna_Says @abirliben Need to have @eldavis8 on the list, too! 💗

@gabbycazeau @HarryStebbings @Adrianna_Says @abirliben @kk_goldstein ❤️❤️❤️

I want to do a Series on the rising stars of venture. These are Principals, Junior Partners, under 35. They have to have led deals, Sat on boards and have insanely high hustle and founder NPS. Who should I have on the show? Twitter, work your magic… 😉

@melodyhahm @HarlemCapital So proud of you 💗💗💗

1 year at @HarlemCapital 🎉 1 year since I made a major career pivot from journalism to VC. Haven't looked back. 5 things I've learned along the way:

@meghalexander Almost there!! Congratulations, mama!! 💗💗💗

Being 8 months pregnant has my immune system absolutely shot. I can't stay well. Literally have had like back-to-back colds for a month 😭. Send heko.

This was by far the best “why me” case I’ve ever seen. You’ll always win in the long run if you hustle hard and advocate for yourself! 🙌🏼 Thank you for sharing, ND.

The myth that there aren’t enough female founders has been busted. @KomorebiFund alone, in the last 6 months, we have come across over 100 female & nb founded companies. In the spirit of #IWD2022 I want to highlight some of these projects

I've been investing in crypto for the last 6 years and angels frequently ask me how to evaluate projects. Here are the steps I generally recommend in running a diligence process for an early-stage crypto investment. *disclaimer: these are my personal views*
