TFX Introduces Elizabeth O'Brien

Speakers: Elizabeth L O'Brien, Principal and Chief of Staff. Brandon Shelton, Managing Partner

Brandon Shelton: At TFX Capital, we have been working hard over recent years to continue to prove our thesis that the best entrepreneurs, the most investable, most impactful, come from those who have served. I'm proud to announce that as part of our overall growth plans this year, we're now excited to announce our first principal hire, Liz O'Brien.

Elizabeth L O'Brien: Hi, I'm Elizabeth O'Brien and I'm excited to share that I've joined the team at TFX Capital as a Principal and Chief of Staff.

Elizabeth L O'Brien: My journey to TFX Capital really began five years ago when I served on the U.S. Small Business Administration's Veterans Business Advisory Council with Brandon Shelton. And it was there that I learned about TFX Capital and the model that he had created that backs military veterans and national security leaders who are founders. These are people that we know already thrive in uncertain environments with high rates of success. So for me as a military spouse, it truly resonated with me. And as I dove more deeply into this model that TFX Capital is, venture capital that extends beyond investment dollars, provides coaching and networking opportunities and the operational success that's built around these companies that ultimately propels our service driven founders forward towards success, creating a culture where failures are not planned, they're not accepted. And all of those pieces for me aligned from a mission perspective. So the idea that I could come in and have the opportunity to be a force multiplier, to provide network driven support to both the founders and the operations of TFX was an opportunity that I couldn't pass on.

Elizabeth L O'Brien: I know people are already wondering how they can support TFX. One, you can join us by becoming an investor in our newly launched Fund Three, or let Veterans and National Security founders know what TFX is all about, and as always, join me in hunting the good stuff.
