What I'm looking for

I am seeking a dynamic role in investment banking that offers growth opportunities and challenges in financial strategy.

I am an Investment Banking Analyst with a focus on technology at the Royal Bank of Canada in London. My role involves leading financial analysis and valuation work for M&A and capital raising transactions, particularly within high-growth sectors. I have successfully advised on significant transactions, including the acquisition of TeamViewer and Digital9's acquisition of Ficolo, showcasing my ability to navigate complex financial landscapes.

Prior to my current position, I gained valuable experience as a Virtual Entrepreneur in Residence at Rocket Internet, where I developed market entry strategies for startups. My background also includes internships at RBC and AXECO Corporate Finance, where I honed my skills in financial analysis and deal preparation. My academic foundation in International Business from Maastricht University has equipped me with a strong understanding of finance and strategic decision-making.
