What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities in a dynamic environment that values innovation and strategic growth, where I can leverage my analytical skills and passion for finance.

I am a finance and venture capital enthusiast with a strong background in startup analysis, market research, and investment documentation. Currently, I serve as a Venture Capital Analyst at FoodSeedTech, where I assist high-potential startups in raising over $2 million. My role involves drafting investment memorandums that analyze startup potential, market size, unit economics, and risk-return profiles, which are crucial for internal investment committee meetings and communications with Limited Partners (LPs).

With a CFA Level 1 certification and a BBA in Banking, Finance, and Insurance, I possess a solid academic foundation complemented by practical experience. I have successfully contributed to creating pitch decks that highlight product-market fit and market opportunities, aiding in informed investment decisions. My passion for high-impact investments drives me to engage in research articles on startup ecosystems, which have significantly increased engagement on our firm’s LinkedIn page.
