What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my finance expertise in a dynamic, innovative environment, focusing on growth and impactful contributions.

With over 13 years of experience in finance, treasury, and risk management, I have successfully leveraged my expertise to drive strategic outcomes across major financial institutions. My journey into the blockchain sector has allowed me to pioneer treasury solutions and manage crypto assets, supporting ecosystem growth through venture capital initiatives.

Since immersing myself in the crypto world in 2016, I have become captivated by the potential of blockchain technology. I am genuinely excited about the opportunity to contribute to a company that has a tangible impact. My background in traditional finance, combined with my passion for innovation, positions me to drive accelerated growth in a resilient financial environment.
