Devon Krainer's path into venture investing grew out of studying sustainability and social innovation, time spent in Ethiopia seeing finance used for social and environmental change, and a personal journey of learning about Indigenous reconciliation that led her to support community initiatives like O:se Kenhionhata:tie before joining Raven. She describes her career as a jungle gym rather than a ladder, and at Raven she applies an investing approach built on shared responsibility for reconciliation, centering relationships so different voices are heard, and holding impact investing accountable so it doesn't become shallow.
