Jake Lefker, Lead Facilitator

  "As a Colombian adoptee raised in Connecticut and now based in Boston, I’ve always carried a dual sense of identity — one rooted in discovery and belonging. Angel investing became a way for me to connect those threads and support underrepresented founders who are building the future with culture at the core. Through my work at VamosVentures and previously at Inicio Ventures, I’ve seen firsthand how capital, guided by values, can open doors, shift ecosystems, and build lasting wealth within our communities. This work isn’t just professional — it’s personal. It’s about building a world where more of us get to lead, invest, and thrive."

Julia Runne, Community Engagement Lead - Investor Inclusion

Institute for Entrepreneurial Leadership

 "As someone deeply connected to my Puerto Rican roots, I believe that intentionally investing our time and money in small businesses is a powerful way to honor our culture and community. Sharing this angel investing opportunity with my family strengthens our ability to build a foundation for generational wealth we can proudly pass down, uplifting our heritage for future generations."
