Non-notable BLP. We have broad consensus that thiel fellows are not inherently notable based on WP:INHERIT and that Forbes "30 under 30" lists do not confer notability. Little is left. There are unresolved questions about notability on the talkpage, and WP:BIO notability criteria are not clearly met. WP:BEFORE yields no (or debatably very little) independent coverage of her at all.

• Keep - I agree it's an edge case and the article can def be improved, but for me these three give significant coverage in reliable sources: Wired, Startland, Business Journal Mujinga (talk) 17:29, 25 November 2022 (UTC)
  • These sources rely heavily on interviews with the subject, which seems to work against them being the necessary independent coverage. FalconK (talk) 22:00, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
