Previously Head of Investments at Ideaspace Ventures. Three x startup founder. 5 x angel investor and serial startup mentor.
I led investments at Ideaspace Ventures (the Philippines leading pre-seed stage VC) from 2020 thru 2024, closing investments in 27 startups, co-investing with the leading Seed and Series A VCs and mentoring hundreds more Founders through our partner accelerator programs.
My primary expertise is helping Founders build complete and robust data rooms - in particular:
1.) ensuring that your pitch deck is clear, coherent and truly compelling!
2.) checking that all other documents - financial model, AFS, investment contract, etc etc - are complete and aligned so that investors aren't confused by conflicting information.
Founders like working with me because I cut through the noise and give the honest insights they need, but always delivered with warmth, encouragement, and a collaborative spirit!
I led investments and portfolio management at Ideaspace Ventures (the Philippines leading pre-seed stage VC) from 2020 thru 2024, guiding and advising our 27 portfolio startups and hundreds more through our partner accelerator programs.
I have thousands of hours of experience in helping Founders with the two most critical tasks at any Startup's early stages:
1.) Prioritizing and executing the RIGHT TASKS at the RIGHT TIMES for their specific stage of validation, launch and early growth.
2.) Defining and tracking the most critical KPIs to help them measure real progress. Because you need to know if your startup is working towards and achieving product-market fit. There is no value in holding on to vanity metrics!
