Shireen Jaffer, Angel Investor

Shireen Jaffer is a people-obsessed product builder based in San Francisco. She is obsessed with solving real-world problems and built her first business at 17. While attending USC full-time, she bootstrapped her first company Skillify to challenge our societal obsession with college and helped thousands of high school students get real-world exposure via internships and mentors. She focused on impact and profitability from day 1 and scaled Skillify programs to 220 schools by the time she graduated three years later. She also co-founded Edvo, a software development company that offers a platform that allows to bring tabs, files, and ideas in one place. As early as 2014, she has also been an angel investor with investments in Relativity Space, TripActions, Outreach, OutboundWorks, and Jumpcut.
