More About Holden:
Holden's journey began with four years of dedicated service in the US Army as a Forward Observer, where he served alongside units such as the 173rd Airborne and 101st Air Assault. Following his honorable separation in 2015, Holden enrolled at Stanford University. During his tenure at Stanford, Holden's entrepreneurial spirit flourished. He co-founded a startup within the prestigious ZX Venture's incubator and later founded Picomart. Picomart became a venture capital-backed startup that revolutionized the accessibility of fresh, locally sourced produce through a cutting-edge smart-fridge kiosk, catering to apartment tenants around the clock. As an Entrepreneur in Residence at Context Ventures, a $30M early-stage venture fund, Holden explored and evaluated startup opportunities, supported portfolio companies, and contributed to the investment committee. This role led to the successful launch of VetraFi, a fintech platform addressing the unique financial needs of military service members and their families.
