About
An accomplished entrepreneur and community builder, I hold a Bachelor's Degree in History from Brown University and have a diverse educational background, including training at NOLS and Rye Country Day School. As a Co-Founder of Pangea.app, I have successfully built a thriving community of 70,000 creatives, backed by prestigious investors such as Y Combinator and Idea Fund. My role as a Founding Member of the NYC Founders Club involves organizing exclusive events for top founders in New York City. I have served on the advisory board of RIHub, contributing to the growth of the Rhode Island startup ecosystem. Additionally, I have shared insights on entrepreneurship through a TEDx talk, focusing on Stoic virtues. My entrepreneurial journey includes being part of the top 2% of applications accepted into Y Combinator's Winter '21 Batch, joining the ranks of innovative companies like Airbnb and Reddit.
