Miriam Rivera is one of fewer than one percent of Stanford University graduates to be decorated with a Stanford Medal. She earned both her MBA and JD degrees there then went on to build one of the largest LatinX venture capital funds in the world. The fund hosts eight unicorns in its portfolio. Miriam founded the VC fund based on the thesis that diversity is more than trendy - it's profitable. The firm is now seeking to expand its executive leadership team. She now holds the role: CEO, Co-Founder and Managing Director Ulu Ventures.
