Ariel Lopez
Where talent meets capital —
and opportunity follows.
I help people find their path into tech careers — and founders find the funding and resources to grow.
I've hired for Nike, Google, Spotify, and Uber. I've built a company. Now I work inside venture. I've been on every side of the table — and I'm building the bridges most people never had access to.
Two audiences. One mission.
For Founders
Whether you're raising your first round, looking for your first customers, or trying to understand how the ecosystem actually works — I've built a company, run global programs, and now I work inside venture. I know what's on the other side of that door.
