Melody Qiu's path into venture is rooted in public policy and global health from Princeton, where she focused on structural issues like local health workers and state responsibility for health rather than just health products or startups. Before joining Coyote Ventures, she gained operating experience in women's and family health at Progyny, giving her a background that combines health policy thinking with hands-on experience in the field she now invests in.

Notable Investments
Coyote Ventures is led by a team with scientific backgrounds—including a GP who worked in biochemistry and product R&D at Impossible Foods and a network of scientist advisors—who review research literature and test products themselves before investing, and they use a relatively large ten-person deal team to make decisions. Rather than limiting themselves to a narrow FemTech label, they back health platforms for conditions that solely, disproportionately, or differently affect women, treating structural issues like missing billing codes and biased research design as real, investable business problems rather than just social ones.
