Sheridan ClayborneLinkedIn

Hi, I’m Sheridan.

I’ve been starting companies since I was a teenager. These days I’m most interested in early-stage startups and SPVs.

I co-founded Lendtable out of YC, helping people get the full 401(k) match their employer offers. I’m a Thiel Fellow, made Forbes 30 Under 30, and left Northwestern, where I was studying computer science and economics, to build.

I also run ShareBear Ventures, backing ambitious young founders early, with Naval Ravikant and Jeff Fagnan as anchor LPs. I was the first check into Brinc Drones, and lately I’ve been spending more time on SPVs too.

I live in San Francisco and I’m always happy to grab coffee with someone new.
