I am an investor at General Catalyst, where I passionately champion the firm’s mission-driven investment philosophy, dedicated to fostering enduring, positive change. With a keen eye for early-stage global seed investments across diverse verticals, I spearhead Apex, a GC platform dedicated to backing exceptional founders from Y Combinator.
Before General Catalyst, I worked at Y Combinator, where I led top-of-funnel outreach to thousands of emerging founders for programs such as Startup School, Work At a Startup, and the YC Batch. My career journey began at All Raise, a startup committed to enhancing equal opportunities for women and non-binary individuals in the tech and investment sectors.
I hold a degree in Sustainable Innovation from UC Berkeley and am deeply committed to environmental, economic, and social global sustainability. I’m originally from Curaçao, a tiny island in the Dutch Caribbean, and I love to explore new geographies, cultures, and healing modalities outside of my professional pursuits.
