Hey and welcome to my profile! I'm Jenny, a business professional with over 18 years of experience from the tech industry. Communication, sales and marketing have permeated my entire working career.

It was such an inspiration to see not only the energy and passion but also the unique view on leadership and how to stimulate teams to perform their utmost with almost any resources. Coaching high achievers from startups from all around the world to big corporations has been fantastic. Since the start, I have coached more than 1200+ companies representing 14 different industries within everything from retail to MedTech to artificial intelligence.

I specialize in helping professionals and entrepreneurs position themselves for job searches and startup fundraising, particularly in the tech world where I have many connections to decision-makers through a trusted network of investors, founders, and executives, and the inside view. As the founder of Right-Hand Partners, a VC relations company and executive recruiting partner for the tech startup community. For over 20 years, I have helped more than 50 early stage companies raise over $250M and achieve exits worth ~$1B by coaching them on their investor presentation package, creating a target list of qualified VCs, and connecting them to my network of 2000+ investors. I have also recruited fundable/funded CXOs and top talent for tech companies across various sectors, such as SaaS, cloud, mobile, data, AI, blockchain, and cybersecurity. I have mentored many entrepreneurs and professionals on their career development and growth, and served as a board member and advisor for several organizations. Interesting insight for 2025 VC fundraising landscape: Certain sectors are experiencing a lot of VC interest such as DefTech are on the rise with global funding reaching $31 billion in 2024—a 33% increase from the previous year. This trend reflects a growing appetite for innovation in areas like autonomous drones and cybersecurity tools. (Source: Business Insider) I believe there is continued appetite for AI, e-commerce, and consumer-driven innovation in the VC World. As funding momentum continues, these startups are poised to disrupt industries, markets, and business models, and of course, technology in 2025. And, if you are job searching, California is one of the top three states that offer the best job opportunities less vulnerable to AI automation. California it is the home to the Silicon Valley. It remains a stronghold for careers in data analysis, machine learning, and cybersecurity, with job growth in these fields expected to rise 30% in five years. (College News)
