About

From War Zones to Boardrooms

As a former CNN war correspondent, I learned that compelling narratives can change how the world sees things. Now, I bring that same intensity and storytelling expertise to the world of tech and venture capital.

As former Head of Global Communications at OurCrowd, Israel's most active venture firm, I promoted over 500 portfolio companies and supported 73+ exits including IPOs and major acquisitions.

I work with founders who refuse to blend in. Companies disrupting AI, fintech, cybersecurity, and frontier technologies. Together, we craft narratives that capture attention, build credibility, and drive results.
