How I got funded as a non-technical queer female founder, a 🧵.
1/ So, I was raised in the elevator industry which is $100B undisrupted oligopoly. I was being mentored by the US CEO of one of the major global companies and seen as top talent.
Yesterday, I had the honor and privilege of speaking at Nasdaq AuditMate is a company founded on radical inclusivity with full permission to be human. We truly believe that in order to do well, we must start by doing good.

@RussellLowery10 I have insane drive and high output but get bored easily. As a kid and young adult, this had me jumping from idea to idea. I have learned how to fall in love with my start up again and again to reengage my drive when I’m losing steam.
@AkieaG I’ve always thought it was an impossible job… now my heart just hurts for all service industry folks. How could people be rude to service industry folks right now?! (Or ever)
@zainjaffer Agreed, I also find that it really helps my mental health. On days that I don’t track what I’ve done, I feel less productive and run out of steam faster. I loved the book Bullet Journal, cool little bio hacking tricks.
@KochinaRude@eatmoresnaxx@KochinaRude couldn’t agree more. Sometimes not drinking while out is hard but the feeling of crawling in bed sober after a long night out is one of my favorite feelings. My inner parent always does a “good job kid, we did it again”
