You’re a high-performing woman doing everything right. You consistently deliver the results, survive the fire drills and have proven your value ten times over. Yet, when the Dir/VP roles open... you hear

"Be more strategic" "Have more executive presence" or "Wait your turn"

while less qualified people move ahead.💔

This isn't about your work ethic or working harder. It’s about power, perception, and strategic influence. As a former C-Suite executive, I know how these decisions are made because I've sat in the talent reviews and promotion discussions.

I started my career right at the bottom in a junior Tech Support role and fought through dysfunctional reorgs and M&As to become a Company President and C-Suite Executive. 

As a working mom and often the youngest executive in the room, I was told every reason why I wasn’t “fit” for the top. I didn’t just shatter the ceiling…I mastered the behavioral psychology required to own the room.

I’ve helped 5,000+ women get promoted at Dir/VP and C-Suite levels and, for many, build founder paths alongside or beyond corporate securing $5.5M in combined raises. and secure $5.5M in combined raises in months, not years.

Stop being the doer that does all the work and start being the leader who leads it. Every cycle you wait is a $40k-$125K mistake.

Send me a DM. Get your seat at the table.✌️

Every investor who rejected these 6 women is somewhere regretting it. 🌶️ 
The venture capital world loves to talk about "potential," but only 2.3% of funding goes to women.

These 6 women didn't wait for a term sheet or a seat at someone else's table. They built their own, and more importantly, they kept every chair.

1: Sara Blakely - Turned $5,000 into Spanx, built a $1.2 billion company, and self-funded it for 21 years. When Blackstone bought it in 2021, she still owned 100%.
Lesson: The money you have is enough to start. The money you make is enough to grow.

2: Mahisha Dellinger: A bank told her no, so she bootstrapped CURLS with $25,000 anyway, a hair care brand for natural curls that industry ignored. Today, it's a $15 million brand sitting in Walmart, Target, and CVS Health.
Lesson: A bank's "no" isn't a verdict. It's a detour to full ownership.

3: Cate Luzio: Self-funded Luminary when everyone told her to raise. Now: 30 countries, 100+ corporate partners, and zero outside capital.
Lesson: People warning you about risk often haven't taken any themselves.

4: Natalia Shahmetova: When VCs wouldn't touch pet tech, she went ahead anyway. Woofz now has 21 million downloads and $20M in annual revenue, built entirely on her own terms.
Lesson: Build where no one's looking. By the time they notice, you're already ahead.

5: Jaclyn Johnson: Bootstrapped Create & Cultivate, sold it for $22 million, then bought it back. All by 35.
Lesson: An exit doesn't have to be the end. If you built it right, you can take it back.

6: ✨Vivian Kaye: She built what the beauty industry wouldn't...products for Black women with curly hair, starting with herself. A college dropout and single mother, she bootstrapped KinkyCurlyYaki to 7 figures.
Lesson: The best products come from founders who needed them first.

We’ve been trained to think that "making it" means someone else validated us with a check.

These 6 women didn’t wait for the world to change.
They built empires anyway.

Hi there! I'm an agile product manager with more than 15 years of experience in technology and, for the last 6 years, in Product Management. My ability to simplify complex problems, energetic communication, and great sense of humor make me an effective and collaborative coworker. I excel under pressure and thrive on collaboration, reliability, and taking responsibility for my work.

Throughout my career, I've specialized in API integrations across various industries, including FinTech, EdTech, and eCommerce in YC startups and Fortune 500 Corporations. I'm passionate about creating products that not only meet but exceed user and stakeholder expectations. As a "people" person, I understand that a deep understanding of customers is fundamental to building successful products.

In my free time, you'll find me pursuing my love of dancing, boxing, tennis (I'm a former player and coach here!), or traveling. An important part of my life is mentoring Women in STEM and non-binary students. Staying active and maintaining a healthy work-life balance is essential to being productive and happy.

I'm always open to discussing product management, technology, and fitness and wellness, so feel free to connect with me. Let's collaborate and create something great!

CPO&COO of Aparti- AI for Family Law Firms🚀👩🏻‍⚖️

We came for the family law for conference… and participated in the Hollywood gala 🎬✨

The Southern California Chapter of the AAML  Conference in San Diego was the perfect reminder that family lawyers are truly a special breed: sharp, experienced, and covering every possible family law scenario — from boutique firms to powerhouse practices — and still knowing how to throw down on the dance floor.

We were especially excited that my co-founder, Igor Sheremet , and I were sponsors this year and hosted an Aparti.ai booth, which gave us the chance to meet so many incredible firm owners and attorneys up close. The conversations, insights, and curiosity around what’s next for family law were 🔥

Huge thank you to the AAML SoCal Deans team who made this year happen —
👉 Renee Fairbanks  Andrew J. Botros, CFLS, CALS Thomas W. Tuttle  — truly flawless execution.

Special shout-out to Kelly Shindell DeLacey  from DeLacey, Riebel & Shindell, LLP , Robert and Shannon Miles  from Cage & Miles (and the whole team!), and Steven Mindel from FMBK Law  for being so engaged, welcoming, and genuinely fun to be around. The energy, collaboration, and laughs made this conference extra special.

Already counting down… Arizona, see you soon 🌵

Aparti will be at the AAML SoCal Annual Institute of Trial Advocacy, and we’re excited to join the conversation.

Looking forward to meeting family law professionals, hearing what’s top of mind in practice today, and sharing how AI can help with the most time-consuming parts of family law: from asset division to intake and court-ready docs.

If you’re attending, come say hi 👋
