Nina Fairbairn

Nina Fairbairn is an investment partner at Transcend Partners. She was previously at Insight Venture Partners, a 25 year old NYC-based growth stage software investment firm that has over 30B in AUM. During her time as a Harvard Division 1 golfer and 3x Ivy League Team Champion, Nina experienced first-hand the difficulty in receiving a proper Lyme diagnosis and treatment. As a Bay Area native, she was not aware how pervasive Lyme is and how serious the disease can be, until other Harvard teammates had Lyme and her entire family was diagnosed (even the dog). She is passionate about educating and protecting others from Lyme, particularly within the athletic community. She holds a B.A. in Economics from Harvard University and currently resides in San Francisco.
