Tricia Montalvo Timm

Tricia Montalvo Timm, a first-generation Latina, C-suite executive, thought leader and DEI advocate, is no stranger to these challenges. For her, it all boils down to self acceptance in order to succeed on any level. Author of the forthcoming book, Embrace the Power of You: Owning Your Identity at Work (March 7, 2023; Macmillan), Tricia chronicles her journey toward self-acceptance and her own definition of success, sharing stories of those she's met along the way who have been instrumental in shaping the professional Latina woman -- and wife and mother -- she is today.

Tricia rose through the ranks of Silicon Valley advising high-tech companies big and small, culminating in the sale of data analytics software company Looker to Google for $2.6 billion. Tricia is one of the few Latinas to have attained the triple achievement of reaching the C-suite, joining the boardroom and cracking the venture capital ceiling.

Her career has spanned from working with some of the largest and most well-known publicly traded multinational companies in the world to stepping on as the first lawyer at several high-growth start-ups. Tricia currently serves on the board at Salsify, a business-to-business software company whose commerce experience management platform helps brand manufacturers, distributors, and retailers collaborate to win on the digital shelf.

Tricia's industry recognitions include the 2020 Women of Influence and Latino Business Leadership awards from Silicon Valley Business Journal and the title of Diversity Champion from the Silicon Valley Business Journal Corporate Counsel Awards. Tricia is also an advocate for women and girls and serves as a mentor, advisor, and investor in female-founded companies.
