Peter K.

Startup Consultant and Fractional CFO

✦ MY TRACK RECORD I’m a founder-turned-consultant with 18+ years of experience building and advising startups across industries. I’ve walked the founder path myself launching, scaling, and exiting a business so I know what it takes to turn vision into traction and raise capital from serious investors. To date, I’ve partnered with over 330 startups (and many more through referrals), helping them go from pre-seed to Series C and beyond. Whether you're refining your story for angels or preparing to pitch top-tier VCs, I can help you get there with clarity and confidence. I’ll take you through my refined, step-by-step process to build compelling investment materials that will secure funding and accelerate growth. I hold degrees from Columbia University (BA) and The George Washington University (MBA) and reside in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I am an active member of Silicon Valley’s oldest angel investment group, The Band of Angels. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and boy in Ross, California in Nor Cal's Marin County within the Bay Area. ✦ CORE OFFERINGS Pitch Decks Investor-ready content and clean, modern design in Google Slides, Keynote, or PowerPoint.
