I am taking a break from venture capital and start ups to have the conversations there aren’t words for.
I embark to sit at the intersection of gender differences, the environment and spirituality to hold space for the revolting conversations there simply aren’t words for, and draw out a language that we can all begin to lean into, for meaningful change.
I am a 4x founder, venture capital advisor, and an angel investor.
At heart, I am a scientist with a BS from University of Washington in Pre-Medicine and a certificate from UC Berkeley Haas School of Business in Artificial Intelligence, and I am delighted by synchronicity, science, and data driven insights.
My soul is deeply spiritual and compels me to listen for what is unspoken and draw from a multi-dimensional field of contemplation.
Get ready for a front row seat to deep research, cumulative data, and the search for the answers to the questions that we don't typically have the guts to ask out loud, such as:
Why are men killing themselves 4X women?
Why are men 4x less likely to graduate from college than women?
How do we define toxic masculinity?
How is the worth of a man defined today?
How do men feel misunderstood?
What if the men who inherited this patriarchy want change, but don’t know where to start?
What if patriarchy is underscoring our current situation with climate and the predicted outcome of our planet?
What if the premise of feminism is actually perpetuating deeper division and is setting women back?
What if the biology of our species and our planet was designed such that we actually experience our fullest potential when we are in collaboration?
I am self- funding this research as a personal project, because I realized no amount of technology, carbon offsets, or DEI (diversity-equity-inclusion) initiatives are going to fix the current state of affairs. I am largely unqualified to have such conversations, but who really is - point is, I’ll probably get this all wrong, but I promise to apologize as I go along.

…. it is time for the conversations there aren’t words for, and from these conversations, where it is uncomfortable, painful, and sometimes revolting, the language of revolution can be formed. and we need a revolution, because our planet is running out of time for the continuity of competitiveness and division. we need to understand each other. we need to revere our differences and forgive the past. we need to find our way to cooperation and collaboration. we need a new language to define our next iteration. we need the language of Collaborism.
