About Edrizio de Cruz
I am an ex Visiting Partner at Y Combinator, the world\'s leading startup accelerator and investor. I joined YC in 2022, after co-founding and leading Arcus, a Payment-as-a-service platform that enabled millions of people in Latin America to access digital financial services. At YC, I leverage my 10+ years of experience in venture capital, M&A, and fintech to support and mentor hundreds of founders from diverse backgrounds and industries. I am passionate about empowering underdogs and creating positive social impact through entrepreneurship and innovation. I also share my insights and lessons learned in my new book, The Underdog Founder, which chronicles my journey from selling guavas in a Santo Domingo barrio to selling my startup to Mastercard.
