Macie Mata is a passionate, Angel Investor and Business Consultant based in Charlotte, NC. Her financial career started 10 years ago with Wells Fargo. Her drive to succeed and coachable personality helped her climb the corporate ladder at a rapid pace.

At 21, she was moved to Nashville, TN to assist in the market conversion from Wachovia to Wells Fargo. During this time Macie was able to take countless underperforming Retail Banking Centers and turn them into a “success story” with team averages over 150% to goal. Furthering her career, she moved to Charlotte, NC as a Business Consultant.

She spent three years partnering directly with over 40 Retail Banking Centers and 250 Business Bankers to help drive financial success to companies generating $150K to $10M in revenue. In 2017, Macie then expanded her consulting experience to technology companies and began thinking beyond her financial career.

Stepping away from Wells Fargo, she went on to become the Founder and CEO of a startup, MAZE Services and successfully published a mobile application on Apple and Android thus providing a platform connecting clients to beauty services professionals. Macie spent two years building her company and team before executing a successful technology acquisition. MAZE put Macie in many spotlights as The Woman Defining the Beauty Industry and was a highlighted female founder on multiple panels at companies such as Microsoft and Neiman Marcus to name a few. She and her co-founder were the only female representatives on the main stage pitching at Seed the South in 2019.

Since her technology exit, Macie has been using her experience to coach Founders in the development of proprietary business practices that drive the raising of capital as well as the overhaul of business models in preparation to scale, resulting in $6.25 million in total fundraising for startups within the Charlotte Market.
