Meet Terri Burns, the youngest and first Black female partner at GV, formerly known as Google Ventures. (via CNBCMakeIt)

who identified as Black or Latinx were appointed partner at a VC firm in all of 2019, reports All Raise.

After graduating from New York University with a bachelor's degree in computer science in 2016, Burns set her sights on moving to Silicon Valley to work in tech. That same year, she landed a job at Twitter working as an associate product manager. During that time, she connected with a partner at GV who had worked in product management for many years and offered to give Burns more insight into the industry and their career journey.

At the time, Burns says she still knew very little about venture capital and had no clue what her role at GV would entail. But after speaking with a few people on the team and going through the recruitment process, she joined the firm in October 2017.

Biden's campaign denied the former vice president's involvement, and records reviewed by WSJ show no role for him. No one gives a shit. Stop.
