Melody Koh
Melody is a Partner at NextView Ventures, based in its New York office. She has spent her entire career working with technology startups as an entrepreneur, operator, and investor.
Prior to joining NextView, Melody was Head of Product at Blue Apron. Melody joined Blue Apron as the first product hire post Series A and helped scale the business through hyper-growth (25x in 3.5 years) and to its IPO, building and leading teams across Product Management, Product Design, and Data Science. Previously, Melody was a Product Manager at Fab.com and the founder/CEO of a seed-funded wine subscription e-commerce service. Prior to her operating career, Melody was a venture investor at Time Warner’s strategic VC group in NYC and was one of six inaugural members of First Round Capital’s Product Co-op initiative.
Melody holds an MBA with Distinction from the Harvard Business School and a BS in Commerce with Distinction from the McIntire School of Commerce at the University of Virginia. After living in NYC for 13 years (across various fun neighborhoods in Manhattan & Brooklyn), she now lives in NJ suburbs with her husband and two young kids.
Fun Facts: I have been on two TV shows – Cash Cab and Top Chef (Season 15; Restaurant War). The Cash Cab experience was completely unscripted, and me and my three teammates (all junior VCs at the time in NYC) collectively won $1200 after a 15 minute cab ride. The Top Chef appearance as a patron of the Restaurant War episode was way less dramatic.
