S7 Bonus: Chelsey Roney, Proxi

Chelsey Roney graduated from Texas A&M in 2011 (whoop!). She is passionate about building businesses, as her current venture is her 3rd startup. But prior to her entrepreneurial adventures, she worked for Microsoft and Boeing, gaining incredible big industry experience. Outside of tech, she has a busy home life, being married, and a Mom of 2 young kids. Her family has a number of furry friends at their house, including a husky and a few cats. During the first Halloween during COVID, Chelsey and her co-founders experienced the need for mappable addresses, in organizing Seattle trick or treating. What was built for that holiday got media attention, and their crew decided to build it right, apply to an accelerator, and bring their solution to the world. This is the creation story of Proxi.
