Hi

I'm Elena. I'm a builder and writer based in New York. I'm currently working at a startup (will update this when I announce which one!). Before that, I worked at a different startup. Before that, I was an investor at a16z. And before that, I worked at an investment firm focused on public companies.

If you're here, you're probably at least somewhat curious about getting to know me. There's a good chance I feel the same way. If you want to connect, reach out at elena96b@gmail.com or on X.

I write about what’s on my mind at this particular moment, usually in the realm of tech, finance, culture, and business.
