Hi, I’m Maggie! I’m a Los Angeles based angel investor and syndicate lead, media entrepreneur and creator that sits at the intersection of entertainment, brand, and early-stage consumer startups.

After pioneering angel investing and private market investing as a content creator on TikTok, I founded Hot Smart Rich, a media and entertainment, lifestyle brand, and investment holding company build around a personal brand and community of over 160,000+ HSR Insiders that empowers women to know and build their worth.

I’m also the co-founder of HSR Ventures, an early-stage consumer syndicate that invests $150K-$500K into some of the fastest growing consumer products, services and technology including De Soi, Sydecar, Mixlab, and Ohza. With deep roots in the early-stage ecosystem, I have angel invested into some of the most sought after consumer deals including Allara Health and Deux and am the secret deal maker behind some of your favorite consumer equity brand partnerships for her advisory companies including Nudestix, Futuremood and Ohza. I’ve also worked extensively as a venture-backed startup operator, entertainment executive and corporate venture capitalist.
