What I'm looking for

I seek a client-facing role in investment banking or capital marketing where I can source deals, build C-level relationships, drive fundraising and brand exposure, and use analytics in a collaborative, growth-oriented team.

I am a business development and capital-marketing professional focused on sourcing and representing profitable investment opportunities worldwide.

I have traveled across Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Europe to build relationships with C-level executives, founders and entrepreneurs. I have solidified over 1,000 investment opportunities and assisted clients with U.S. listings, brand exposure and capital raises.

I have supported growth-stage companies through strategic marketing, analytics and media placements, and contributed to business outcomes at firms serving security and Reg A+ markets. My work has included helping clients gain interviews on major networks and supporting fundraising campaigns that collectively raised significant capital.

I combine metrics-driven insight, collaborative client partnering and strategic advisory to educate companies on growth and ROI. I seek opportunities where I can continue to raise capital, build trusted partnerships and deliver measurable results.
