Startupfest was such an amazing and rewarding experience. I am proud to announce Bindr® won the first ever 2SLGBTQIA+ Pitch Competiton! I feel so honored, grateful, and accepted. This was the largest prize specifically for LGBTQ+ founders to date, and it means so much to be able to accept this and give representation to not only founders, but for a queer company as well! I have to say, when the first people to hug and congratulate you are your competitors, that is the true meaning of community and what queer folxs are all about. Thank you so much to my amazing team, Brandon Teller, Bekah Kuntz, & Matt Christianson. I am so proud of you all and grateful for you. Thank you to my mentors who have been supporting me through all this, Jackson B., Elizabeth Hay, Sara Longo, Allan Lehman & more. And a HUGE thank you to the amazing judges for all the support, believing in me, and being so kind though this whole process.

So grateful and ready to keep giving and ring prosperity into the future 🩷💜💙🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
