After spending a decade at a top-tier VC firm in London and New York, she now operates as a fractional CFO, helping Series B and C companies optimize their cap tables and prepare for exits. Her writing demystifies complex financial topics, from hedging currency risks and calculating burn rates to negotiating debt covenants and structuring revenue-based financing. Elena believes that financial health is the bedrock of innovation and advocates for robust, investor-ready reporting standards.
