Diana is a Co-Founder and General Partner of The Artemis Fund. She began her career on Wall Street, spending a decade in M&A and commodities trading at Lehman Brothers and Macquarie Bank. After catching the entrepreneurial bug, she launched a women-only networking app and quickly encountered the funding challenges faced by female founders. Motivated to close the gap, she co-founded the Monarq Incubator—the first national, funding-focused accelerator for gender-diverse founding teams. Monarq supported over 30 companies across three cohorts, which went on to raise more than $15M before its acquisition by the Female Founders Alliance in 2019. Born in Odessa, Ukraine and raised in New York City, Diana holds a Mechanical Engineering degree from The Cooper Union. Her career reflects a consistent drive to build systems that empower underrepresented founders to scale with confidence. Diana is a board member of Work&, DRESSX, Builders Patch. She is a board observer of Max Retail, Salvo Health, Simplifed, Brij, and CNote.
