Your co-host and skipper, Drew has a background as a successful startup entrepreneur (2 startups, 1 exit) and operating partner (4 corporate ventures). Post exiting TailBus, Drew founded and lead the creation of four thriving corporate-backed ventures: XOM Materials (European B2B marketplace) for Klockner & Co, Transportation Mobility Cloud (automotive API-based open-framework software development platform) for Ford Motor Company, NextLoan (alternative lending and investment platform) for Reliance Capital, and B2B materials distribution marketplace for Confidential Company.

Drew Moffitt
Your co-host and relief skipper, Kristin enjoys spending her time on the water (especially on sailboats). She learned her love for sailing at eight years old and later in life became a sailing instructor in Old Greenwich, CT and member of U.S. Sailing. When onshore, she leverages her skills of managing and facilitating events for top legal talent to help curate the group of VentureSails goers.
The only thing Kristin loves more than rosé is creating a warm and hospitable setting for connecting those in the startup ecosystem.
