Jeanine is a go-giving entrepreneur, and sociolinguist turned techie. Born to Jamaican parents, she prides herself on being a global citizen who speaks three languages, dances salsa and samba, and has shared meals with strangers in nearly 20 countries. Known as a super-connector, Jeanine lives by the credo, “Always give more in value than you receive in payment,” and trusts that genuine relationship-building and resilience are the keys to success.

On a personal mission to increase access to capital for underestimated founders by demystifying VC, Jeanine has impacted over 4,000 entrepreneurs in the last two years, and has been featured in Nasdaq, Business Insider, Cheddar TV, NBC, the Miami Herald, and on the cover of Entrepreneur Magazine.

Jeanine is an avid ecosystem-builder and Miami tech advocate (aka “The Plug”) and has assumed that role through her work as an X in Residence at Brex, one of the world’s top fintech start-ups, a VC Scout at Florida Funders, Venture Partner at Wefunder and Founding Partner at Rezilyent Capital.
