My life mission is to drive transformational impact and bend the arc of human progress. I was drawn to the tech industry because of technology's power to transform the lives of people and communities. Over the years, this passion led me to take on various partnerships and leadership roles at WhatsApp, Facebook, and PayPal. As a strategy and business development leader, I forged alliances with global industry leaders, helped bring new products to market, and designed dynamic ecosystems of partners and developers. Over time, I increasingly found myself advising founders on go-to-market topics, which inspired me to transition to the venture industry by joining Sequoia Capital as a Senior Director.

I was deeply drawn to General Catalyst’s commitment to building enduring companies that create both financial and societal impact, and in 2022, I joined the GC team. General Catalyst’s mission to invest in powerful, positive change that endures aligns perfectly with my life mission. I am passionate about partnering with ambitious founders who create category-defining companies and who actively seek to change the status quo for the benefit of humanity.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, reading, and making music. I am also a trustee of my family’s foundation, which advances leadership, mentorship, and socio-economic development in Africa.
