Sophia Amoruso is the founder, investor, and New York Times bestselling author known for her entrepreneurial journey. She established Nasty Gal, an e-commerce brand that started in a garage and grew to over $100 million in revenue. Her determination and innovative approach have made her a prominent business speaker and investor, with appearances at events such as LA Tech Week and TechCrunch Disrupt.
Sophia's story gained widespread recognition through her memoir #GIRLBOSS, which details her early life and experiences as a founder. The book was adapted into the Netflix series Girlboss in 2017, featuring Britt Robertson in the lead role. Her achievements have earned her a place on the cover of Forbes magazine’s 2016 issue on “America’s Richest Self-Made Women,” as well as features in Fortune’s “40 under 40,” Forbes’ “30 under 30,” Inc.’s “30 under 30,” and Fast Company’s “Most Creative People in Business."
In addition to her memoir, Sophia has written two other books: Nasty Galaxy and The Girlboss Workbook. She also founded Business Class, a digital community and course aimed at entrepreneurs, freelancers, and side hustlers.
Currently, she leads Trust Fund, an early-stage venture fund that focuses on pre- and seed-stage companies. Her fund has successfully invested in notable startups, including Liquid Death, a company known for its canned mountain water, which has reached a billion-dollar valuation.
