I don't need anyone's permission to be bold, to be great, to be unapologetically me. – at Birmingham, AL
I successfully defended my dissertation proposal yesterday and have now advanced to the doctoral candidacy phase. I am officially a PhD candidate!
Thank you to my committee members (Cristobal Cheyre, @karen_ec_levy, Jon Kleinberg, and @HodaHeidari) for teaching me how to be a critical and productive researcher and nurturing my interdisciplinary scholarship.
Yesterday, I presented my research at The Racial Equity in Technology Entrepreneurship Workshop at NYU (@centerforcrds).
Thank you to the RETE team for organizing this workshop, and a special thank you to the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation for sponsoring this event.
I am super grateful to have the support of @CornellCIS and @LinkedIn to pursue my research on designing equitable capital allocation systems for venture funding.
Congratulations Allison Koenecke (@allisonkoe) and Anthonia Carter (@AnthoniaCarter)! Both were selected in the first round of grants from the new five-year, multimillion-dollar partnership established between the Cornell Bowers CIS and @LinkedIn!
Did I spend a good chunk of my day designing a set of backgrounds for a new slide deck template for upcoming talks?
Yes, indeed! I didn't get that BFA in Art Studio for nothing.

I've been pretty busy under a rock making progress towards obtaining my PhD, but I did not want to end the first week of 2022 without giving a much overdue update on my VC research study.
Check out the video below. It is the first one of a video series about the project.
Over three months ago, I began a qualitative design research study with US-based venture capitalists and limited partners. I sought to understand how diversity (or lack thereof) plays into capital allocation. (1/8)

To the investors that participated in my study, thank you for being generous with your time and sharing your experiences with me. (7/8)
