About

I started my career on the ground floor of investment roles, where every number carried weight and every deal taught me more about the art of capital. Over time, those early lessons evolved into a deeper understanding of how venture capital, private equity, and fintech all share one common thread: the ability to transform ideas into scalable businesses. My path has taken me from building fractional real estate products and leading startup investments to structuring multimillion-dollar M&A transactions. Along the way, I have designed frameworks that accelerated investor engagement, raised capital that moved companies forward, and forged partnerships that crossed borders and industries. Each role demanded sharp analysis, but the most meaningful parts have been the people—founders, investors, and teammates—who trusted me to guide them through complexity. Today, as an MBA candidate at ESCP, I am broadening that journey with an international lens, refining how I approach strategy, growth, and cross-market investments. What excites me most is the blend of strategy consulting discipline and investment agility—the chance to solve problems that matter while driving outcomes that last. If you are looking to collaborate in venture capital, private equity, fintech, or strategy, I welcome a conversation.
