Hi I’m Cat. I’m an angel investor, passionate about investing in companies for and by women. I’m also taking a 6-month sabbatical from the working world to travel (Antarctica, Easter Island, China, etc.) and learn new things (learning Chinese)!Previously, I was Head of Culture at Pinterest. Over the last six years, I wore many hats at Pinterest. Before taking on culture, I led Global Partner Marketing and was our first Head of Growth. I helped scale Pinterest from 25 million to more than 100 million monthly active users, and I helped the organization grow from 40 to over 1300 employees. Before joining Pinterest in 2012, I worked on the Facebook platform team starting in 2008. I have an MBA from University of Michigan and a BS in Computer Science from Stanford.Ask me anything about angel investing, traveling, company culture, product growth, marketing, building and scaling a team, or something else! It’s my first AMA (*super nervous*), but I’m excited to engage with this community! I’ll be in Taiwan and about to depart for Singapore when answering your questions!
