Director of Community & Platform at RRE Ventures, where I lead community, content, research and events for RRE, as well as support our portfolio companies and the growth of the NY tech ecosystem.

Prior to RRE, I was a research and strategy consultant that helped startups (Meetup, See.me, Creative Mornings, Assembly) and agencies (Huge, Exopolis, Luminary Labs, Mother, Digital Kitchen) with community, communications, collaborations, and understanding emerging technologies. On the research side, I analyzed the future of media, retail, eCommerce, restaurants and health technologies for clients.

More recently, I worked closely with Collaborative Fund on a range of special projects including content curation, brand collaborations, communications and portfolio support.

I started my career as an art editor / digital strategist at GOOD magazine, where I became enamored with technology, its effect on consumers, and its ability to transform old industries.

  • A group of people, primarily women, sitting closely together outdoors, some holding food plates. They are engaged in listening, with a brick wall and a person operating a camera in the background. The mood appears to be casual and attentive.
