Hometown: Spencer/Van-Etten, NY What makes you the best person for your role? I have extensive experience in project management and am great with deadlines.
Working in the legal field for so many years has really taught me how to seek out guidelines, learn procedures and follow through with any requirements that these companies will need to comply with.
I can help from start to finish with obtaining funding, internship agreements/reimbursements or space agreements within our accelerator programs.
What is your favorite thing about working with startups? The energy.
The enthusiasm and sheer fortitude to get their ideas and products out there among the people is truly inspiring! What do you love about living and working in Pittsburgh? The variety of activities and entertainment options.
You can hang out at a farm picking berries or brewery during the day and then head into the city for a show or game in the evening – never limited on fun things to do! Where can we find you outside of work? You can find me outside, attending a concert, trying a new restaurant or in the kitchen spending time with family and friends.
