Who are we? 👀

Hi 👋 We're Justine & Olivia Moore - and yes, we are identical twins! We grew up in Oregon and moved to the Bay Area for Stanford undergrad.

As "outsiders," we found startups & VC hard to understand. We created Accelerated to make it easy for anyone to learn about the industry and find job opportunities.

Justine is a consumer partner at VC firm a16z. Find her on Twitter & LinkedIn.

Olivia is also a consumer partner at a16z! Find her on Twitter & LinkedIn.
