I build the rooms where founders meet capital, customers, and each other. If you're scaling something ambitious, we should talk.

Miles Deamer

Operator turned investor turned connector.

I build the startup ecosystem around Citizens Bank — connecting high-growth founders and venture firms with the financial infrastructure, strategic capital, and relationships that accelerate what they're building. Through Primavera Ventures, I invest directly into funds and early-stage companies shaping what comes next.

I came up as an operator. Eight years, three venture-backed fintech companies — Kiavi, AlphaFlow, and Sundae — that collectively raised ~$500M. I built the capital markets, operations, and BD functions from scratch. That experience is why founders trust me: I've sat where they sit.

USC alum, former D1 water polo player, co-founder of Troy Collective, and board member at ODC. I live in San Francisco with my wife Maddie and our son Rio.

~$500M Raised across 3 startups

8 yrs Operator experience

15+ Curated events per year

What I Do

Community Building

High-signal dinners, tentpole events, and curated networks that put founders in front of the right people. Not networking — relationship infrastructure.

Startup Banking

Credit lines, treasury, and financial tools that actually move the needle on fund and startup IRR. I connect founders and VCs to banking infrastructure built for how they operate.

Civic Engagement

Great cities need great institutions. As a board member at ODC, I bring the same community-building lens from venture to San Francisco's broader civic and cultural ecosystem.
