Currently running business development for LendingFront, a cloud-based small business lending platform for banks and alternative lenders.
Three-time founder. Three years in private equity before that. Began my career in China, where I got my first taste of startups and investing, and also did print and television reporting.
Companies I founded
or co-founded: • OCX, a marketplace business lender that taps into existing networks to signal creditworthiness, efficiently source high-quality borrowers, and reward investors for backing businesses they know. • Dwelleo, an online service for communicating with people and services around where you live and that brings residential real estate to life. • AirMaid, hotel-quality services for private homes, focused on the short-term rental market.
I also served as Director of Finance and Operations at OmniTrail, a mobile technology firm, and have advised a number of growth-stage companies.
Earlier in my career, I worked at private equity firm KP Capital Partners, where I led the execution of controlling investments in companies in the electronics, logistics, apparel and specialty foods sectors and was actively involved in overseeing portfolio company management and served on several boards.
I was part of the early team at business intelligence firm ChinaLaw (now part of Thomson Reuters) in Beijing, where I also worked as a journalist and started the first American-style brunch in the Chinese capital.
Hold an MBA from the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business and a B.A. in International Relations from Tufts University.
