Chris Bordeaux
Co-Founder, Managing Partner
From Chicago, now residing in the sunshine state. Only child of immigrant parents who instilled a relentless work ethic and the conviction to stand up for what he believes in. Started his career as a attorney for Oprah before moving into venture capital.
As COO of Techweek, built an extensive network of networks, which he now leverages to strengthen LFG’s partnerships through a blend of legal expertise and operational insight.
Ask him about psychology or philosophy, and he’ll go deep.
Rob Madelmayer
Co-Founder, Managing Partner
NYC. DC. San Francisco. Dallas. A decade running revenue for venture-backed tech taught him that the best private deals are a relationship business. Seeing a deal and being in a deal are two different things.
He wakes up thinking about the future and the companies building it. Rob's job is to be in the room. And to bring his network with him. He spends his days turning access into allocation, for his own capital and LFG's private network.
Ask him about AI, crypto, or humanoids, and he'll happily tell you where this is all headed.
Zach Rakowski
Director of Operations
Every great firm runs on people you don't always see. Zach is one of them.
Nearly seventeen years inside private companies taught him that the strongest partnerships are built on trust, honesty, and consistent follow-through. Do the small things well, and the work compounds.
Zach runs end-to-end support for LFG's investors, partners, and team. His day is spent analyzing, coordinating, and sharpening every process, message, and output that moves through the firm. The quiet engine room behind every deal.
Clear your schedule when you ask him about process improvement, his last podcast, or the Fighting Illini.
Roma De La Peña
Executive Admin
Ten years in customer service. That's where she learned that the details matter and that people notice when they don't.
Now she's the operational backbone of LFG. Philippines-based, province life by choice. Family-oriented, clear-headed, and wired for precision. She spends her days making sure every investor, every deal, and every data point is accurate, connected, and usable. The kind of work that's invisible when it's done right.
She nerds out on Google Sheets and automations. Builds workflows that actually hold. Catches gaps in investor records and onboarding before they become problems. Everything talks to everything and if it doesn't, she'll make it.
Team in the room. Roma makes sure the room is ready.
