Singapore
I am an investor, advisor, and connector in retail and commerce tech. My work bridges investment perspective and operating reality. I stress‑test consumer commerce and retail tech against market mechanics, customer behavior, and the governance questions boards actually ask. The result is a view that is clear, investable, and actionable - whether for an early‑stage founder or a later‑stage venture. That same approach applies to people. Over time I've built a global network of founders, investors, operators, and board leaders across Singapore, Southeast Asia, the US, and the UK. The value lies in knowing when the right connection reshapes a cap table, accelerates a commercial partnership, or turns a competent board into a catalytic one. I currently sit as a Partner at CAPTIS Ventures (UK/Singapore), Senior Advisor at Human Equity Capital Partners (London/Milan), on advisory boards that include DesignSingapore Council and the National Retail Federation (NRF) in the US and APAC, and as Board Director for WRAP and Since Tomorrow. Previously, at Lyra Ventures - as the fund's only operator - I helped build the thesis and portfolio in fashion‑tech when it was still a nascent category. If you're focused on the next generation of consumer engagement or commerce, and want a sharper view of where you're going and who should be in the room, tell me what you're working on.
