This was by far the best “why me” case I’ve ever seen. You’ll always win in the long run if you hustle hard and advocate for yourself! 🙌🏼 Thank you for sharing, ND.

Thank you so much, @meliarobin! Such an honor to be included alongside these incredible women. May we continue to raise each other up. 2022 is our year 🚀
Every year, more women barrel through the doors of venture capital's boys' club. To toast their success, we're recognizing those who made partner or GP for the first time in 2021. Cheers ladies 🥂 https://t.co/QXsXsoimYF
