About
Monique Woodard grew up on a farm in rural Florida and is largely self-taught in tech, giving her an unusually grounded perspective on which everyday consumers and markets are overlooked by typical Silicon Valley investors. She pioneered the "three-layer cake" demographic thesis focusing on aging markets, women as primary consumers, and people of color as the new majority, positioning demographic shifts rather than hype cycles as the core driver of her investment strategy.
