Hi! My name is Katherine, and I am a pre-seed investor at Notation Capital, a New York based venture-capital fund that focuses on investing in pre-seed stage startups. I grew up moving between California, Kunming, and Hong Kong. I am fluent in English, Mandarin, and (some) Cantonese.
I started my early career in law, and after going to law school and obtaining my J.D degree, actually did an entire 180 and joined a venture-backed startup in NYC as a Business Development lead. My path in venture capital was totally unplanned, but I love what I do now, and am always open to new ideas and meeting new people! I hold virtual “Office Hours” every week (in my personal capacity!), and would see some sign-ups if you want someone to hype you up or help you brainstorm around interviews, negotiations, presentations, or cool ideas.
Things I love: fiction novels, yoga, writing, and anything else that can enable my continuous growth. If you have book/music/restaurant/travel recommendations, please do send them my way :)
