Jenny Lefcourt - VC, Entrepreneur, and Stanford GSB Dropout

The Altogether Show with Eric Satz

In this episode, I’m speaking with Freestyle.VC Partner, Jenny Lefcourt. We grew up together in Miami, Florida, and it’s been fun to watch her professional life evolve into what it is today. After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania, Jenny became a CPA at Arthur Andersen—where she discovered public accounting wasn’t for her. After a couple of years working for a startup in Silicon Valley, she attended the Stanford Graduate School of Business, before dropping out to start her own company. We talk about how—after an initial bumpy start—she discovered her true passion and became the co-founder of two successful startups, eventually leading to her current role as a venture capitalist.
