What Founders & Partners Say
Tory is a true connector. In just 6 months, she introduced our company to more qualified, aligned opportunities than all other sources combined. She took the time to deeply understand our vision and became an integral part of our team in the process. I give her my highest recommendation. Louis Laves-Webb, Co-Founder, Delta Pellets Working with Tory has been straightforward and valuable—she brings real opportunities to the table and makes collaboration seamless. Exactly the kind of partner you want in your corner. Didier Dippe, CEO, Sagona Capital Working with Tory and F3 has been phenomenal. She consistently puts founders in a position to connect with the right investors while helping us refine our structure, positioning, and how to move with purpose. Her support has been instrumental in how we continue to build and present Evolutionary Mining. Brandon Hives, Founder & CEO, Evolutionary Mining I’ve been working with Tory for several months—she brings sharp insight across all aspects of building a business, especially in the startup and founder space. She’s also a strong connector on both the capital side and strategic collaborations. Len Davi, CEO & Founder, Davi Audio "As a fellow founder, I’ve been consistently impressed by Tory’s no-nonsense approach and ability to cut straight to what matters. She sees the opportunity, locks in, and makes things happen—combining vision, strategy, and the right relationships to move quickly and decisively." It’s a rare and highly refined skill set. Kate Brown, Founder & CEO, Scorpion Creek F3 provides an incredibly efficient and targeted approach to connecting founders with the right capital partners. Tory brings both precision and positive energy to the process—making it highly effective and easy to engage. Virginia Klausmeier, CEO & Founder, Sylvatex Tory exceeded expectations from the start—refining our materials, elevating our investor positioning, and connecting us with the right capital partners. Within a short time, she introduced us to an investment group that has issued a letter of intent and is now in due diligence, along with several other aligned opportunities. She cuts through the noise and focuses on what actually moves a company toward funding and launch. Charlie Dispenza, Co-Founder, Massie Technology Group
