I don't know Elizabeth (sure she's great), but the other three are amazing and always quite helpful.
Kat's been an amazing connector both within the YC community and in supporting applicants. She's connected me with some potential fintech applicants, which I think is a great way to leverage alums.
We met with Yuri a few times before he was a part-time partner and he was quite helpful and encouraging. We're in the enterprise space and he told us to just keep fighting the long-sales-cycle fight. That advice came at a critical moment where we really needed to just keep going through the slog.
I haven't talked to PC much since leaving Stripe but he obviously build a great company and culture there that I really enjoyed. He's going to be an amazing resource for YC companies.
- kayhi 13y agoElizabeth is awesome, we're in the life science space and she has always been very helpful. We aren't YC, but has taken phone calls, talked with us at conferences and answered emails.
- omnisci 13y agoI have to agree, Elizabeth is fantastic. Super nice, easy going, and clearly very intelligent :) Really happy to see that she is getting involved in this, looking forward to seeing how YC picks up science based companies.
- dzink 13y agoElizabeth is brilliant, both from a biotech and from a startup perspective. Kat is one of the best connectors I've met. YC is growing muscles in very needed areas. Can't wait to see what they have in store for the next few cycles.
