27yo F30 Senior Data Analyst Pivot to VC Roadmap

Hey everyone, looking for a reality check and a roadmap to Venture Capital. I’ll keep it short…

A couple details:
-Currently a Senior Analyst (Data Analytics) at a Fortune 30
-UF PR degree (3.9)
-27

I realized VC was the goal post grad.
I’m under zero illusions and know the "standard" path is IB/Consulting traditional finance route or being a founder and that my degree makes things more difficult.

I’m not looking for an overnight switch, but a trajectory and some advice from those in the industry. I volunteered at a VC conference because I was interested and realized it’s where I want to be just on the opposite end of the table.

Is an M7 the only viable "reset" button for someone with my profile and what useful advice could you lend? Thanks in advance.
