Sara Schein
AnalystBorn in Sweden to a Swedish mother and a Kurdish father, I'm fortunate to have family living across the world including Israel and Iran.
Having grown up in Stockholm I moved to the UK for my university studies. Prior to completing my master’s degree at London Business School I worked in private wealth management at Goldman Sachs and graduated from the University of Warwick. I later worked for a fashion e-commerce startup, and then in management consulting in Copenhagen where I advised companies in the Nordics on strategic initiatives, before entering the world of VC in London on the investments team at Hambro Perks.
It fascinates me how the venture capital space is so dynamic, enabling both change and creativity. It’s an invaluable opportunity to learn from talented founders with diverse backgrounds and exciting business ideas, while being able to support their growth and promote innovation through White Star’s international presence.
Music has always played an important role in my life and my passion growing up was singing. I’m a soprano and used to participate in acapella, pop, and rhythmic choirs. When I’m not singing I’m listening to all sorts of music, ranging from musical theatre to electro, or trying my hand at DJing. I also like going for Swedish fikas, skiing and travelling to new places, Japan is an all-time favourite!
