Heraman is a Trinidad & Tobago-born venture capital investor at Aperture Venture Capital who credits a daily 30-60 minute Vipassana meditation practice as his primary edge for productivity and decision-making in venture investing. He operates across multiple global tech hubs from NYC to major Indian cities and has built a reputation as a resource nexus builder who focuses on underrepresented founders while weaving his eclectic interests in design, sacred music, and even zombies into his professional narrative.

Notable Investments
Aperture Venture Capital positions itself as "VC for the Multicultural Mainstream," building its entire thesis around Black, Latin, and female founders as the new center of U.S. consumer and business growth rather than treating them as niche impact plays. The fund operates as both an investment vehicle and corporate partner network, systematically connecting portfolio founders with its Fortune 500 LP base through what it calls "The Diversity Investing API℠"—a programmatic framework that treats diversity investing as infrastructure rather than an ad hoc activity.
