Kristie Han brings a mix of backgrounds and experience that's rare for a fintech investor: born in Seoul and raised in Mexico City and San Diego, she speaks Spanish, Korean, and English, and has worked across North America, Europe, and Latin America, while also combining growth-stage venture investing with majority-control buyout experience from PSG and Riverside, and helped shape Bain Capital Ventures' investing approach to next-gen AI, leading to work with companies like Apollo, EvenUp, MaintainX, Relay, Homebase, and Wonder. At Canapi, she focuses specifically on AI and vertical software companies that build in payments and fintech tools, invests across a wide range of company stages from Series B to pre-IPO, and has taken part in public discussions about how banks and fintechs can work together.
