What I'm looking for

I am seeking global and remote opportunities that allow me to leverage my extensive financial expertise to drive impactful solutions and contribute to meaningful projects.

I am a seasoned financial services professional with over two decades of experience in the financial sector. My hands-on exposure spans project finance, microfinance, retail banking, and corporate banking. I specialize in financial modeling, risk management, and structured finance, and I am passionate about driving impactful financial solutions globally.

Currently, I serve as an External Project Finance Consultant, advising on financial and risk matters across various projects, including social housing and renewable energy. My flagship project, the Lufhereng Integrated Housing Development, aims to deliver over 30,000 housing units. I have also held leadership roles, such as Operations Director at WEDB Financial Services, where I empowered women through financial inclusion programs and successfully negotiated significant lines of credit.
