About Us

A short history of

Warmblood Stallions of North America

is owned by WSNA Ventures, LLC, and is operated by Natalie Masin. It offers an impressive combination of services for getting your stallion known to mare owners. The key to its success has been the commitment to service that motivates us. Nat is a breeder herself, and thrilled to be involved in a business that serves the industry she loves.

After ten years as a print magazine, went exclusively online in 2017, where it has become an unparalleled stallion promotion service. It is centered on this website, and also includes a sister site, WarmbloodBreeding.com, the WarmbloodStallionsNA Facebook page and outreach to breeders through our Warmblood Breeding News email newsletter.

Nat comes to WSNA with a diverse and strategic background. Nat's professional experience encompasses internal and external consulting with a keen focus on driving value growth for businesses and clients. Professionally, Nat holds the globally-recognized Chartered Financial Analyst (“CFA”) charter and is a licensed Certified Public Accountant in the state of Texas. Nat obtained dual undergraduate degrees in Agricultural Business/Technology and Accounting (combined with minors in Finance and Animal Science) from Washington State University at Pullman, then a Master of Professional Accounting at the University of Texas at Austin.

Nat is an active Board member of the not-for-profit United States Sport Horse Breeding Association, and holds the USSHBA Treasurer role. Nat also serves on the American Hanoverian Society Editorial Committee as an active committee member supporting the registry publications, including the annual AHS Stallion Directory.

Nat’s passion for agriculture and warmblood breeding started at a young age, competing hunter jumpers through high school on her first gray Oldenburg mare by I Am Graf Royal/Graf Gotthard, then transitioning to dressage in college on her second gray Oldenburg mare by Ideal. Little did she know, these two mares would become the foundation of a fledgling warmblood breeding program. From this foundation, Nat earnestly began to realize this lifetime passion to breed for the next generation of top warmblood sporthorses by developing and nurturing this small breeding program with her mother, Lynn Masin. Through these efforts, Nat developed an appreciation for the modern-day challenges facing North American stallion owners and breeders, thus committing herself to supporting the advancement of North American breeding stock, and to call attention to the impressive bloodlines and performance stallions now available here in North America (credited wholly to the endless blood, sweat, and tears of stallion owners and their support functions/network).
