About

Real estate fund manager with 12+ years of development experience across Sweden, the UK, and the Caribbean. Today, focus is on capital allocation, portfolio construction, and risk—working hands-on across the full lifecycle, from sourcing and underwriting to development, optimization, and exit. A big part of what I do is building long-term partnerships with HNWIs, family offices, and institutional investors. Fortunate to be awarded “New Real Estate Investor 2019,” secure investment on Sky TV’s Property Dragons’ Den, and speak at industry events across Europe. Before real estate, I played professional basketball in Europe—something that still shapes how I think about discipline, competition, and teamwork.
