Professional background

I just moved from NYC to Australia.

I consider myself a non-traditional investment banker, my background is in entrepreneurship as a co-founder of a food manufacturing company in the US for 7 years. We created the very first ready-to-eat overnight oatmeal sold in US grocery stores. We started in 5 farmers markets in 2012 and grew manufacturing into a 45K square foot facility and distribution into over 3500 grocery stores across the US.

I exited my company in 2019, went on to grad school for my MBA from Yale and Cambridge University and pivoted into finance with Citibank in the Consumer and Retail investment banking group. I left Wall Street in 2023 to start my own M&A platform for earlier stage companies. I now sit on the board of advisors for a recreation brand and a food manufacturing company. I specialize in identifying growth opportunities, sales and channel strategy, financial discipline and sustainable growth strategies.

With the move to Brisbane, I just accepted a role with a private equity firm to lead its M&A strategy, diligence, and portco integrations and to set up a US subsidiary for acquisitions in the US.
