humhum

Pre Seed Round in 2020
After returning from a long period of silent retreat, I stepped back into the NYC dating scene; it felt transactional, and tiring. I saw I was not alone. 78% of people experience emotional fatigue or burnout from dating, and studies show that people using dating apps are more likely to be distressed, anxious, or depressed, yet people continue to turn to the apps over and over. I saw an opportunity to bridge the gap between mental wellness and dating. humhum approaches dating holistically. Through our virtual guided blind dates, group dates, and coaching, we focus on the journey over the outcome, authentic connection, and skill-building so that time spent dating feels nourishing, wherever you are in your process.

Eatsee

Pre Seed Round in 2019
Eatsee brings the restaurant experience to the Instagram generation. We create beautiful, visual menus for cafes and restaurants to showcase photos of each dish on their menu for customers to see before they order. Eatsee's dish based discovery app (likened to Tinder for food) allows customers to discover new places to dine by swiping left and right through photos of dishes personalised to discovery settings like distance, price, dietary requirements and meal types.
