June 4, 2024
5:00pm ET – 6:15pm ET
Zoom | Free

Join us on June 4th, 2024 as Kelley Arena shares HerStory from football to finance to Golden Hour Ventures.

Kelley is the founder of Golden Hour Ventures, angel investor, consultant for women-founded business, and advocate for women in finance. She began her career at a professional football franchise (go Eagles!), rotated through various operating companies at Johnson & Johnson, and moved to investment banking at Merrill Lynch, specializing in public finance and healthcare.

Kelley founded Golden Hour Ventures, with one mission in mind: to Make Women Rich. The goal is to activate a new class of female angel investors, bring women closer to their finances, realize the power of our collective consumption, and divert the flow of venture capital from 98% male founded companies to…something more equitable.

Kelley has consulted with dozens of brands, and loves helping founders find their voice. She has a portfolio of 23 companies, boasting 21 companies founded by women. She is a proud mother of two wild boys, an advocate for students with special needs, and a regular volunteer with mentoring formerly incarcerated people reentering the job force.
