About

I help funds, founders, and institutions raise capital, build durable investor relationships and structure the vehicles that move institutional money.My work sits at the center of capital formation and investor relations. I originate and manage relationships with family offices, institutional allocators, and funds; stand up fund structures and the institutional packaging behind them (decks, DDQs, data rooms); and run deal sourcing and due diligence from first conversation through close. I bring hands-on experience positioning vehicles through multiple jurisdictions globally.Before capital formation, I was an operator and a builder. At Moody's, I led mission-critical, multi-year transformation programs tied to DOJ and Dodd-Frank mandates, rebuilding the processes and data systems that institutional markets rely on. That grounding in program management, compliance, and technology is why I can sit across the table from a technical founder and an institutional allocator in the same week and translate between them.I have built and operated across South Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the Americas. That global footprint is how I source deal flow, align stakeholders across very different markets, and open doors that stay shut to single-market operators.Focus Areas:- Capital raising and LP origination across family offices, funds, and institutions- Fund formation, governance, and cross-border jurisdictional strategy- Deal sourcing, due diligence, and buy-side mandate execution- Investor relations and institutional-grade reporting- Strategic partnerships and event-to-pipeline conversionI also bring a senior operator's range: technology, program management, and large-scale process transformation, for teams that need someone who can carry both the relationship and the execution.
