Candidate:
Mr. Texas 5ever
About Me:
I scaled an alcohol delivery management platform across ~100 liquor stores at the height of COVID. We ultimately failed (sort of – the other founders are attempting a hard pivot), and I accepted an analyst role at an early-stage and industry-agnostic venture capital firm.

Work History:
Title: Analyst
Industry: Venture Capital
Company: Boutique Firm
Length of Employment: 2 yrs, 1 mos
Title: Founder
Industry: Technology
Company: Start-Up
Length of Employment: 2 yrs, 1 mos
Big Life Wins:
My startup built the technology stack and managed the launch of the first legal alcohol deliveries in three states. We had to spend a lot of time navigating imperfect regulations with the lawyers that would’ve been punishing us, and ultimately helped shape future legislation around the alcohol delivery space.
Post MBA Goal:
I want to raise my own pre-seed venture fund focused on companies that are uniquely positioned to take advantage of shifts in collective moral norms. There are so many products and services on the market that our parents would have scoffed at, and someone needs to give them their first check.
