Sara Christensen, Angel Investor & Advisor

Sara Christensen has experienced all sides of the business world. In 2000, she predicted the rise of the juice craze when she co-founded Liquiteria, the first micro pressed juicery in New York City. After starting a successful brand herself, Sara wanted to help others grow their businesses, so she became an angel investor and venture capitalist. Most recently Sara served as the Managing Director of The Raptor Group, where she invested in companies like Uber, Airbnb, Snapchat, Spotify and more. On this week's episode, Sophia and Sara discuss walking away from Liquiteria, why investing in female-founded companies is important, and Sara's tips for pitching venture capitalists.
