Mucker Capital's Monique Villa is pretty far from what we tend to think about when we picture a venture capitalist - the older white man who graduated from a prestigious university and went on to get his MBA. She’s none of those things, but maybe that difference in background and perspective gives her an advantage when evaluating startups to work with. On today’s show, Monique shares why she loves being a venture capitalist - and some of the parts of the job that aren't her favorite.
Welcome to First Check, a podcast so you can learn how to be the next great venture capitalist or angel investor.
As a partner at Cofounders Capital, host of First Check Tim McLoughlin has invested over $43 million in startups, and on this podcast, Tim shares what works and what doesn’t, so you can be ready to write your first check.
