New York City
A social club built on good rooms and better company.
The Circle Sessions, dinners, and socials in New York — rooms designed so that talking to a stranger is the easy option, not the brave one.

Women in Business: Happy Hour
Nurse Bettie — 106 Norfolk St, NYC
A happy hour for women building things — founders, operators, and anyone widening their circle. We curate the room so you can actually make friends instead of collecting LinkedIn connections.

Alt Finance After Hours
The Ivory Peacock — 38 W 26th St, NYC
A small wine meetup for people across alternative investing, fund operations, and fintech. No pitching and no forced networking — one reserved table and a decent conversation over something good. We read every RSVP before confirming, so only ask if you can genuinely make it.

Pop the Balloon: NYC Edition
Location TBA
Co-hosted with two collaborators
The dating show format, run live in a public park — balloons, strangers, and no algorithm deciding who's worth your ninety seconds. Come to watch, or DM us on Instagram to enter as a contestant.
How It Works
Rooms Built So You Can’t Hide In Them
The Circle Sessions
The lineup is curated. The door isn't.
A booked, paid lineup and no guest list politics. We choose the DJs carefully so nobody in the room has to. Still nobody waiting to be let in, still nobody performing for the door.
Dinners
Too few seats to disappear into a corner.
One table, small enough that the conversation stays whole. You will talk to everyone there, which is the point and also the risk.
Socials
Just enough structure to make talking the easy option.
Rooftops, boats, wherever the room is worth being in. Enough of a frame that no one has to invent a reason to talk to the person next to them.
Rooms fill up. Hear about them first.
Events go out to the list before they go public. Our first one sold out.
