I’m thrilled to share that I’ve joined Firmus as the Chief of Staff! I officially came on board last week, and I couldn’t be more excited to be part of this incredible team. I’ve had the privilege of working with Shir A. (CEO) and the team for over three and a half years during my time at Heartland Ventures, and in that time have grown a genuine admiration for their vision, values, and the way they build. In a world where everyone is an "AI company", it's exciting to be with a team that is at the cutting edge. To my Heartland Ventures teammates — thank you. It’s been an incredible ride working with you, supporting our portfolio companies, and building meaningful relationships with our LPs. I’ve learned so much and am deeply grateful. Excited for what’s ahead! 💥
