Jessica Herrin (Stella & Dot) and Alfred Lin (Sequoia Capital) at Startup Grind 2014

submitted by Vivian on 05/26/15 1

As the brains behind Stella & Dot, Jessica has proven just how one woman can go about styling her life with smarts, courage, and tenacity. After joining two successful tech startups out of college, she went to the Stanford Graduate School of Business, where, at the ripe age of 24, she co-founded the now world's leading wedding site, WeddingChannel.com. Jessica's been recognized for her business savvy even more than her style savvy -- Oprah, The Wall Street Journal, New York Times and Forbes have saluted her for her vision. Taking Social Selling to the next level, Jessica's been honored by Ernst & Young and Inc. 500 as a Top Entrepreneur. Alfred Lin focuses on consumer internet, enterprise and mobile investments. He is a Director of Achievers, Airbnb, Houzz, Humble Bundle, Kiwi, Romotive and Stella & Dot. Prior to joining Sequoia Capital in 2010, Alfred was Chairman and COO/CFO of Zappos.com (AMZN).
