I have some news.
After two years of soul-searching, experimentation, and saying no to everything, I’m finally saying yes. I’ve joined Natty Zola, Ryan Broshar, and Shannon Shroyer at Matchstick Ventures. Like a moth to the flame (pun!), I’m getting back into venture capital.
That’s pretty much my news, short and sweet. However, I’ve had several people ask me how I’ve thought about this next chapter in my life (looking at you, Alex!) – so if you want to learn more about why Matchstick, and how I got here, keep reading.

First of all congrats Nicole, will go though the books, a some one similar to you soul searching, I moved to completely new place and have to unfortunately start from scratch. One has to start and keep the momentum.
Soul searching is a good place to be. It can be scary and it can be the start of getting closer to your true best self. Good luck!
Thank you for sharing so openly about your process. I loved every bit of this update and can’t wait to see what you accomplish with the rest of the Matchstick team.
Thanks Kim!
Nicole, this is awesome awesome news! Congrats on the next chapter in venture.
How is everything going with the Colorado Techstars Reboot?! I would love to stay involved and support.

Nicole — We met at GCVF’s Summit last year (where it looks like I’ll see you again this year!). So cool to read what you’ve been up to since. My partner and I signed up for season tickets to Denver’s NWSL — thank you for making it happen!
Definitely going to check out Designing Your Life. I too read the Artist’s Way, and have recently switched to the Book of Alchemy for a similar daily journal prompt in creativity — I have a feeling you’d be a fan.
I’m a founder between the coasts with an innovative approach to the problem of answering nature’s call — quite literally — using our patented GoFly Zipper Technology. We just hit >30K units on the market, as well as a couple licensing deals (including with Burton!).
