ABOUT RUFFIN MITCHENER
Ruffin Mitchener is the creator and founder of Brydge Club, a media and investing community empowering 200K+ women to understand and navigate the world of angel investing and entrepreneurship. Less than 2% of VC funding goes to all-female founded teams — and less than 15% of venture capital decision-makers are women. Venture capital is a boys club where deals happen in rooms we\'re not even invited to, and Ruffin is changing that. Ruffin has personally angel invested and led syndicate opportunities for Brydge Club angels into companies like POCA, Alinea Invest, Offe Market, GOB, Bumo, and Hey Jane. Investing alongside firms like Offline, True Ventures, and Baukunst. She has also partnered with some of the most recognized brands in the startup and finance ecosystem — including Vanta, Gusto, TurboTax, and Yahoo Finance — as a trusted voice for founders and investors alike. Prior to Brydge Club, Ruffin worked as an operator at an Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) consumer fintech startup, which brings hands-on operational experience to everything she backs today.
