In venture, a warm intro carries trust across a network. This Warm Intro series hopes to do the same. Meet the people shaping ADIN: investors, scouts, founders, and friends. Each profile is an invitation to meet someone worth knowing and expand your taste.
Meet Porter. She’s an ADIN Scout (apply here), submitting promising startups for evaluation (and 10% net profit for him if it gets funded). She’s also one of the co-founders of Girl Math Capital and governance at Uniswap Labs. Her curations are thoughtful, aesthetic, and slightly unorthodox. Here’s Porter’s picks:
Guilty pleasure?

Sprouts Churro Twists.
Best article you’ve read recently?

Really enjoyed this perspective Felipe Montealegre on Internet Finance.
Productivity hacks?

I love doing legs up the wall and falling asleep for 20 minutes. Also known as the Navy SEAL nap, this WORKS. Get the benefits of improved circulation and a nap all in one :)
AI of choice?

Claude.
Who’s one founder everyone should be paying more attention to?

Cheryl Kellond! Not just a partner of ours at GMC, but someone who’s really cooking and I know 2026 will be big.
What’s one product you use everyday?

Obsessed with my Redu serum from Dubose.
Who’s an artist you’d love to commission?

If I could go back in time, one of the artists from the Hudson River School in the mid 19th century.
What do you collect?

Handwritten notes.
About ADIN
ADIN is a highly AI focused pursuit (bringing algorithmic venture with the full force of AI agents). ADIN is also just as much about the people. We’re building a network where early-stage funding happens faster, fairer, and with more incentives for the people on the bleeding edge. If you want to be part of that, apply here to be a scout or investor and follow ADIN as we keep opening doors.
