      Crazy enough to believe I can change the world by investing in and working on innovative solutions for the world's everyday problems; powered by technology, empowered communities, and good ol' New York grit.

    • Hi! I'm Joana Gutierrez.

       

      I was born in Manhattan, spent my childhood in Queens, my teenage years in Long Island, and I am now starting a family in Brooklyn.

      I am, without a doubt - a New Yorker.

      I learned about resourcefulness, generosity, and an incredible work ethic from my naturalized Filipino parents.

      I like to observe and execute on patterns, trends, and theses so I became an investor at a hedge fund, and more recently, early stage venture capital. I realized that I wanted to get my hands dirty in crafting solutions, so now I'm trying trying my hand in technology as a founder, as well as other endeavors.

      My Why Contextualized: I want to leave the world better than when I found it with what I contribute to it.

      I am a life long student, forever grateful, and I've been enjoying the journey so far...

      Conversations on Reimagining VC

      Schedule a Time to Chat

      We are living in a post-covid world where several societal deficiencies were unearthed or amplified. It is a time of self-reflection and progress, and the VC ecosystem is no exception. I am a former hedge fund Partner turned Saas tech founder, who has just been offered a Principal / Operator position at a spectacular VC firm. In an effort to do this role justice, I have decided to investigate on how we can improve all aspects of this ecosystem by conversing with all members of the VC ecosystem which consist of VC limited partners, VCs, funded portfolio companies, and portfolio company customers.
