HEADLINE:
OG AI Founder (2003) / Keynote Speaker & Investor / Broadway Producer / 🏳️‍🌈 Advocate

PERSONAL SUMMARY:
I am a serial entrepreneur, investor, AI enthusiast, startup advisor, and keynote speaker dedicated to supporting underrepresented founders.

I believe in the power of representation and inclusion in both business and the arts which manifests in my work at Gaingels, StartOut, and as a Broadway producer (“Hadestown”, “The Inheritance”, and “Allegiance” to name a few).

I have a deep passion for leveraging technology and storytelling to inspire progress.

My goal is to help illuminate AI’s potential to augment creativity, reshape social connections, positively impact humanity, and shift our collective mindset from scarcity to abundance while I continue to advocate for AI’s responsible, thoughtful, and inclusive development and implementation.
