BIO

I'm a serial tech entrepreneur, now founding Kinside, a modern child care benefit. Kinside serves thousands of employers by connecting their employees to the most reputable and safe centers and home daycares nationwide, with access to exclusive rates and spots. Kinside’s intuitive app brings much-needed relief for new parents transitioning back into the workplace, and aids employers in their retention efforts with parents at all stages. Previously, I cofounded HoneyBook, a SaaS tech company that powers over 50,000 freelancers in managing their business and clients. I broke ground in my first-gen Mexican-American family by receiving degrees from Harvard (Master's in Public Policy) and Pomona College (BA in Latin American Studies) by the age of 24. I have authored groundbreaking studies regarding the gender pay gap and sexual harassment in the freelance economy, published on Fortune, Forbes, and Huffington Post, among others. I currently live in Los Angeles with my two gorgeous, rambunctious tots.
