About

At Mission to Launch, we empower professionals transitioning from ministry, military, and missionary life by teaching them to fully realize that God is the originator of their dreams.

We provide Ivy League level instructors, learning, faith-infused alt-mentorship™ (30+ mentors from Goldman Sachs, an NBA team owner, venture capital, private equity, billionaires & more), and a supportive community—so they can confidently bring their Catholic values and develop their God-given talents (active & latent) into the professional workplace and thrive in corporate culture.

Elena, original founder and Chief Executive Officer at Mission to Launch, is a former Director of Youth & Young Adult Ministry turned entrepreneur, board member, and investor. She started M2L to address a widespread crisis: individuals leaving ministry life greatly struggle to get hired into non-ministry work due to lack of network, mindset, or skills to transition successfully.

Abigail, co-founder and Chief Growth Officer at Mission to Launch, brings a unique journey—missionary turned neuroscientist at an Ivy League institution.

Elizabeth, co-founder and Chief Operating Officer, is a wife and mother of three. She also works at a bioscience startup.

5 years later our students who were former campus ministers, youth ministers, directors of religious education, and former seminarians are living and working in their dream careers (nursing, entrepreneurs, venture capital and so many other career avenues).
