About
I turn founder ambition into investor-ready operations — building the governance, comms and fundraising engine behind funds and scale-ups across three continents.
Strategic operator and Chief of Staff-style leader with 15+ years’ experience supporting founders, investors and executive teams across fintech, AI, consumer technology and venture capital.
Currently operationalising a $50M early-stage fund at Arbitrum Gaming Ventures, and longstanding strategic advisor at LYQOS Consulting — supporting BridgingFi’s $5M raise and building investor data rooms across fintech and wealth management.
Brings board-level strategic thinking, hands-on operational execution, and a direct investor-facing lens to founders and funds at a critical inflection point.
How I partner
Fund & Governance Build — Operationalising early-stage funds — governance frameworks, investment evaluation and reporting that improve leadership visibility.
Fundraising & Investor Relations — Investor data rooms, due diligence, and direct engagement with VCs, from seed rounds through to Series-level raises.
Partnerships & GTM — Executive communications, GTM strategy and operating frameworks that support ecosystem growth for founders and leadership teams.
What I deliver
Executive-level strategic weight, without the full-time overhead. A direct operational lens on fundraising and governance, and a steady hand running point across partnerships and investor relations from day one.
Known for building the specific infrastructure a business needs to become investor-ready — I’ve operationalised a $50M fund directly and supported ecosystems linked to $600M+ AUM.
I don't believe in generic operating support — I build the specific Chief of Staff infrastructure your funding stage and growth stage actually need.
