About Katie Shea

Katie Shea brings a rare combination of scrappy founder experience from running her own consumer brand out of her apartment and deep consumer instincts to Divergent Capital's technical pre-seed investments, allowing her to think differently about commercialization for very technical products. She's known for her philosophy of helping founders confront the ugly parts of their business rather than just celebrating milestones, positioning herself as a high-conviction, first-check investor who sits with founders through the hardest moments.
