In this special episode,  I talk about how I built trust on Twitter, got Forbes 30U30, and raised $5 million at 23. I share tips to prevent mistakes that emerging managers make raising their first fund. I will be answering questions concerning interactions on Twitter, demographics of LPs, managing how to network and build relationships with founders alongside raising a fund, sharing information and touching base with LPs, and my methodology for contacting LPs periodically throughout the year.

Seed to Harvest is a podcast focused on stories & tactics from a diverse array of investors, founders, and creators, hosted by Paige Finn Doherty, a founding partner at Behind Genius Ventures and author of Seed to Harvest, an illustrated children's book for adults.
