Summary

• We’re excited to welcome two new members to the team!
• Meet Eloise. The newest joiner to our Venture Fellow Program. Reach out and say hello at ebenissan@dynamo.vc!
• Meet Daniel. Daniel joins as an Investor-in-Residence as he learns about the ins/outs of firm building as he contemplates building his firm, Rock Yard Ventures.

Eloise Benissan is a Venture Fellow at Dynamo Ventures. Like prior Fellows, she will be heavily involved in sourcing, selection, and stewardship of investments.

Alongside, she is completing a Computer Science and Math degree at Vanderbilt University. Prior to joining Dynamo, Eloise gained valuable experience through her year-long tenure at a Paris-based healthcare private equity firm. Outside of work and school, you can find Eloise on a tennis court, on a run at the park, or out to dinner with friends. Reach out and say “Bonjour!” at ebenissan@dynamo.vc.

Daniel Dart is the Investor in Residence at Dynamo Ventures. The Investor in Residence role offers an opportunity to learn the ins/outs of firm building from sourcing, selection, stewardship, as well as IR and other back office functions.

Prior to Dynamo, Daniel worked in a bit of everything, from startups and private equity in London to development and infrastructure work in Gaza, Saudi Arabia, and Algeria - he even spent a few years as a janitor and a maid.  In the second chapter of his life, Daniel is focused on investing in and supporting early-stage tech companies within blue-collar industries, powering the people and communities he grew up in at Rock Yard Ventures.

Daniel matriculated to the London School of Economics graduate school without ever having received an undergraduate degree. And before that, his original research had already been published in Harvard Business Review and the World Economic Forum.

He is an active member of Milken Institute's Young Leaders Circle, an Advisory Board Member of Village Capital, a Board Member of Kickstart Global, and a Fellow of the Salzburg Global Forum. He holds two degrees from the London School of Economics and is an Executive MBA candidate at MIT, where he was awarded the Sloan Leadership and Pechacek Fellowships.

In his free time, you can catch Daniel watching NASCAR. Reach out via email to ddart@dynamo.vc to say hello.
