Welcoming Natalie Sandman to Shasta Ventures

When we started our search for an Associate to help us discover the next breakout enterprise software companies, our goal was to find someone who is curious about technology and passionate about entrepreneurship. We wanted someone who would understand what it takes to build innovative products at the earliest stages of a company as well as grasp what it’s like to be a start-up founder. Natalie brings all of this to Shasta and much more.

Throughout all of these experiences, Natalie’s lived the ups and downs of building startups: from the excitement of closing the first customer, to the highs of explosive growth, and the hardships of layoffs. She can empathize with founders and operators alike, and appreciates the brick-by-brick work it takes to build epic products and amazing companies.
