Promise Phelon

Managing Partner, Growth Warrior Capital

About

Promise Phelon is an operator-turned-VC who personally raised over $100M as a Silicon Valley founder/CEO with multiple successful exits before founding Growth Warrior Capital, which she markets as operator-led venture craftsmanship rather than purely financial capital. She applies a doctor-like diagnostic lens to investing—drawing on an early desire to go into medicine—to diagnose a company's health and design a wellness plan for sustainable growth, while also building Elevo, a free AI-powered pitch deck generator created by reverse-engineering hundreds of successful decks to remove pitch-craft as a barrier for underrepresented founders.
