Startups
I invest in promising early stage startups. Here’s a few of my investments:
Community Builder
Startupeiros
Community of Brazilians in Portugal (and beyond) where people who are involved with startups can connect with other like minded, creative and hardworking people who can help each other and grow their startups together.
Podcaster
FailTales
Big fails. Great stories. Huge lessons.
Honest, vulnerable and cathartic conversations about times, when… well, things… just didn’t go as planned.
About me
Since a very early age… startups have always interested me.
There’s just something about having an idea… and seeing it through that I find so hopelessly irresistible.
That’s why I went to Boston University’s School of Management and was awarded a B.S.B.A. in Entrepreneurship.
That’s ALSO why…. even at full time”corporate” jobs in a design agency, a media portal and a logistics company, startups were always there.
I’ve successfully founded and invested in startups in the past.. but 4 years ago – when I came to Portugal, I pivoted and decided to take startups from a side hustle.. to my MAIN THING.
And now i can excitedly shout:
Startups are my thing.
Startups are my obsession.
STARTUPS ARE MY LIFE.
