For the folks who don’t know about my background - a week after graduating from Texas A&M, I moved to Silicon Valley with a suitcase, an internship, and only temporary places to stay. I also didn’t know a soul in California. If I failed and couldn’t find a job at the end of the summer, I’d need to move home to Texas. It was stressful but also exciting, and I was fortunate that after a cold email, Eric Benhamou and the team at Benhamou Global Ventures were willing to take a chance on me and welcome me to the team for the summer. A few weeks in, I got another break when Amir Nayyerhabibi, one of BGV’s partners, connected me with what would become my first full-time venture job (thank you again Amir).
