Investor Relations - Founder Consulting - Startup Growth - Deal Flow
A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON ME
☘️Welcome to the Irish side, where leprechauns are fictional, Guinness loving is a myth, and we create our own luck☘️
My name is Kellie O Hara “the startup whisperer”, a multi-hat wearing startup founder/advisor with a special focus on people, communications & strategy within the AI and technology startup space.
Guiding founders to avoid rookie mistakes in growth strategies in a faster timeframe, by implementing our “I have worn those shoes and know how they feel, let me teach you how to wear them correctly” methodologies.
I'm an Irish mammy and humour is a massive part of who I am.
People say I'm quite creative, fun and intelligent, but Sshh, don’t tell anyone🙈
HASHTAG #multihat created by me to express professionals with great talent in many areas
Random storyteller
Neurodiverse with an engineer thought process
2006-2011
My journey began as a choreographer, and an audio engineer (where I realised my brain works differently to others), which is now termed as "neurodiverse".
I see gaps where others are not looking (my superpower).
2018-2020
I was one half ARROWS, a songwriting sister duo, singing American country music and gigging across Ireland.
During this time we recorded many covers, and our own original EP which was released on iTunes in 2019.
All operations, marketing and branding was my responsibility.
2015 onwards
Entrepreneurial ventures in travel, music, proximity marketing, startup technology solutions and recruiting. Led by an AI Venture Capitalist and successful serial entrepreneurs who work late into the wee hours to make shi* happen!
I'm not "theory taught", I'm “experience taught", knowing
first hand how"startup shoes" feel
(sore at times).
I made mistakes, reflected to unlearn bad habits which
produced effective growth strategies that
I now teach to other founders.
