About

Private banking professional with experience supporting high-net-worth clients across wealth management, client servicing, and banking operations within global financial institutions. Before moving into banking, I spent 8 years as a B2B entrepreneur, which shaped my commercial mindset, relationship-building approach, and understanding of client needs. My experience across both business and banking has given me strong exposure to stakeholder management, financial markets, and delivering a high standard of client experience in fast-paced environments. I enjoy building long-term relationships and helping clients navigate investment opportunities and wealth preservation strategies across different market environments. Always open to connecting with professionals across private banking, wealth management, and financial markets.
