What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply strategy, finance, and sustainability research to market-entry, investment, and business model decisions, with opportunities to work on rigorous, high-impact projects.

I've supported strategy, investment, and finance decisions across Culture Hint, D2C Insider, Rush Advisory, and UBS. At Culture Hint, I sized UK and Italian retail footfall analytics markets at €100–160M and identified a €29M entry segment.

I built a GTM validation plan across 10 segments, a 200+ lead pipeline, and seven outreach hypotheses, while profiling 15+ competitors to identify a mid-market forecasting opportunity.

At D2C Insider, I led investor relations for a micro-fund, evaluated 40+ startup pitches, and onboarded five investors contributing around €250,000. Previously, I analyzed 200+ listed companies at Rush Advisory and supported P&L reporting, reconciliations, and $700K+ monthly loan transactions for UBS's $500M+ EMEA portfolio.

My work also explores sustainability-driven business model transformation through European and Indian case studies, combining strategy, finance, market research, and ESG thinking.
