Jesse Draper may have started her career as a teenage actress, but her passion for both business and education quickly led her away from a traditional acting platform. As a fourth generation Silicon Valley entrepreneur, she hopes to inspire those who live life at the office — along with those who are intimidated and bored by the word "business" — to put the "fun" back into work-life. To accomplish just that, Jesse created both the jovial onscreen personality and the corresponding program, "The Valley Girl Show," through which she's become a spokesperson for startups and helped pioneer new media content distribution.
Draper is a mother of 3 boys and founding partner of Halogen Ventures. Halogen Ventures is a Los Angeles based Venture Capital firm focused on early stage investing in consumer technology and strategic B2B software companies with a female in the founding team. Draper, the first solo female GP in Los Angeles, is also a 4th generation venture capitalist, the creator and host of Emmy nominated television series, "The Valley Girl Show", and host of the MOMumental Podcast. She is a fierce advocate for investing in women and the opportunity for using technology and innovation to solve some of the biggest issues facing women and families today. Among her 70+ portfolio companies, are theSkimm, Babylist, ThirdLove, HopSkipDrive, The Flex Company, Squad (acquired by Twitter), Eloquii (sold to Walmart) and This is L (sold to P&G).
