Rachel Holt brings deep operator experience from leading Uber's launch in Washington D.C. without legal support or playbooks, navigating intense regulatory resistance that now shapes how she evaluates founders tackling complex, regulated industries like transportation and logistics. She helped architect Uber's distributed General Manager model across the U.S. and Canada—giving local leaders real P&L responsibility—well before it became a widely copied template, providing her with specific pattern recognition for go-to-market and organizational design in operationally heavy startups.
