Head of Legal

About me

Since joining Seedcamp in 2018, I’ve had the privilege of working on over 700 investment rounds, overseeing legal and compliance matters, and leading investment execution. This role allows me to witness the entire lifecycle of our portfolio companies—from incorporation to exit—while navigating the challenges and successes that come with startup growth. Each day at Seedcamp brings fresh challenges and opportunities, deepening my passion for collaborating closely with founders as they navigate the ups and downs of building a startup. One of the initiatives I’m particularly proud of is the relaunch of Seedsummit, a full-stack legal hub for early-stage founders, designed to bring transparency and essential resources to entrepreneurs across Europe.

Before Seedcamp, I spent over a decade in the legal field, focusing on Telecommunications and IT across Europe and Latin America. My experience, combined with time as a Partnership Director for fast-growing startups, has given me a deep understanding of the startup ecosystem and what it takes to succeed. When I’m not busy at Seedcamp, you can find me having a blast with my two wonderful kids, getting lost on my bike, or playing tennis. Originally from La Paz, Bolivia, I bring that high-altitude energy to everything I do—whether it’s supporting founders on their journeys or seizing the adventure in everyday life.

From Day One

My passion has always been technology, and I am energized by working with founders who have a contagious, indescribable energy. At Seedcamp, we are at the very heart of the European tech scene, and nothing excites me more than contributing to this ecosystem. It gives me purpose to ensure founders have a smooth investment process, knowing that the work we do today will shape the future—especially for my children, who will live in a world transformed by innovation.
