*I write small Angel checks to bold founders, making the world a more creative, joyous, or efficient place.
“We’ve all seen Luerra in action, taking her big idea from a one-woman operation to a national, and even a bit international, artistic empire. She never ceased to learn and evolve, rise to meet challenges, and proceed like a happy warrior, with love and good humor, through all of it. But crucially, her big idea was one which was founded on the premise of amplifying other people’s voices, supporting and guiding their own creativity and drive. So her success has been very much defined by the success of others, which is beautiful.”
