Pear VC
Design and Marketing Intern
September 2024 - Present
Pear VC gives early-stage founders hands-on support and mentorship through its incubator programs, including PearX. This culminates in Pear’s Demo Day, where startups pitch to top investors, in addition to Pear’s biannual company retreat: Camp Pear. As Pear’s Design Intern, I was responsible for preparing marketing materials for both events, ensuring that the visual and informational assets effectively communicated Pear VC's mission and branding.
