What I'm looking for

I seek a challenging role that fosters growth and leverages my financial expertise.

I am a seasoned finance professional with extensive experience in managing large-scale investment-grade fixed-income portfolios and derivative hedging strategies. Currently serving as Senior VP at The Northern Trust Company, I lead a team responsible for overseeing $14 billion in fixed-income securities and $12 billion in derivative hedging portfolios. My role involves collaborating with senior executives to construct and implement asset interest rate strategies that optimize balance sheet income while adhering to regulatory frameworks.

Throughout my career, I have successfully co-directed significant public debt offerings and executed capital markets transactions that have freed up substantial capital, resulting in increased net interest income. My ability to navigate complex financial landscapes, particularly during periods of economic instability, has been instrumental in minimizing risks and enhancing future earnings for the bank. I am passionate about fostering a high-performing team culture through clear communication and continuous education on critical financial topics.
