Sydney Wasikowski

Head of Platform & Operations

"What you build matters. Who you build it with matters more.”

  • Pennsylvania native who spent the first part of her career in NYC working on the LP side of investing at Goldman, Bessemer Trust, and APG.
  • Part operator, part product builder. She runs firm ops, leads the GTM Circle (200+ GTM startup leaders), and builds the systems that let a small team show up for founders every day. Her favorite part of the job: helping with early company setup, tech stack choices, and being a safe place for the "silly" questions.
  • Now Nashville-based with her husband and their dog (Kona) after a stint as a digital nomad, she prioritizes people first: new ones to learn from, old ones to hold onto, and family always - with a healthy dose of travel, good food, Penn State Football, and live music thrown in.

We share insightful reads and our thinking / learnings about venture firm building with our fellow early-stage VC peers monthly.
