Message

At Morgan Stanley, I handle investor allocations and GAV for private equity and hedge funds. I support six clients and a team of eight, and contributed to streamlining multi-strategy funds by reducing cash breaks from 500+ lines to 50.

I also handle fund onboarding from setup through allocation completion and go-live, and review daily cash and position movements. My work includes side pockets, private positions, derivatives, waterfall calculations, and distributions.

At Citco Fund Services, I handled investor allocations for hedge funds and worked on cash, dividend, and interest reconciliations. I also supported fund migration and client onboarding.

Earlier, at Societe Generale Global Solution Center and BNP Paribas, I worked on GAV, investor allocations, and NAV delivery across hedge funds and mutual funds. At BNP Paribas, I contributed to the successful onboarding of Capital Hedging funds, the location's first hedging fund.
