About

I am currently working as a Senior Business Consultant and Project Manager at LightCastle Partners.

I managed the finance team and Founders' Office. I specialize in early-stage business finance, fundraising, and strategy. I have experience in leading fundraising operations of USD 8Mn for 10 Minute School. I am a team leader and an effective communicator. I am passionate about numbers and have a keen attention to detail. This has allowed me to understand businesses in a deep way and tackle the issues businesses face in a detailed approach. I am a passionate bibliophile. I love meeting new people and learning new things. I am also focused on putting my passions and skills to good use by projects I really care about.
