Everyone Has a Story
Everyone Has a Story
In 2020 I left my hometown in Ireland at 18 to pursue my lifelong dream of living in New York. I quickly discovered my passion for entrepreneurship and pivoted into VC without ever stepping foot in college.
Investment focus
Enterprise SaaS
My strategy focuses on identifying innovative SaaS companies with a strong market grasp by analyzing trends and collaborating with visionary founders. I target B2B SaaS startups looking for early stage funding.
Edtech
Through my EdTech investment thesis, I envision a future where education is not confined by barriers, but instead, becomes an empowering force accessible to all, regardless of background or location. I seek to invest in founders building better access to education.
Future of work
I’m dedicated to identifying pioneering companies at the forefront of this industry, those who are redefining how we collaborate, communicate, and contribute. With a focus on remote work, automation, and upskilling, I aim to support ventures that not only embrace change but also foster a more flexible, agile, and empowered workforce. I back those who want to shape a future where work is no longer confined to traditional boundaries, but is a dynamic, purpose-driven endeavor that adapts and thrives in the face of unprecedented challenges and opportunities.

Listen up.
The more I networked with people in VC and startups, the more I’ve heard some really cool stories from people with non-traditional backgrounds end up in their dream job. I’ve decided to create a platform for them to share their tale and lessons learned along the way for those aspiring to pivot into the industry.
