I’m in the business of optimizing outcomes.

I collaborate with our portfolio companies on capital raising and exit strategy, among other strategic initiatives. As a former operator and investor, I bring a unique perspective from having sat on both sides of the fundraising table. 

Entrepreneurship is a team sport.

Building a business from scratch is no easy feat, and entrepreneurs shouldn’t have to brave it alone. When it comes to working with our portfolio companies, I’m always ready to roll up my sleeves and help get things done. 

Some of the best opportunities are found in overlooked markets.

My experience living and investing in emerging markets has taught me that some of the best startups come from geographies or sectors that have been historically misunderstood. 

I love to experience new places and cultures.

I’ve studied Portuguese in Rio de Janeiro, Spanish in Madrid, and Mandarin in Beijing.
