Mariana
Problem: After leaving Snowflake, Mariana discovered that her $500k in stock options were about to expire, during an IPO blackout that blocked her from selling to cover the cost.
Solution: We partnered with SecFi to secure a custom funding deal; the investor covered her exercise and taxes in exchange for post-blackout shares.
Outsome: Mariana locked in her share value before a dip, kept nearly the full $500k, and finally took the sabbatical she’d been dreaming about.
