About

Over the past decade, I have supported entrepreneurs, investors, and management teams in growing and transforming their businesses. My work focuses primarily on developing countries and emerging markets, with particular expertise in sectors such as food value chains, sustainable energy, and consumer goods. I bring a strategic and hands-on approach across corporate strategy, financial management, transactions, and business turnarounds, working closely with leadership teams on the full range of operational and commercial challenges required to scale and strengthen companies.

Mentorship motivation

  • I am looking for new investments
  • I like to learn about industries and new businesses
  • I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up
  • I want to make new connections for myself and/or the organization I represent
  • I want to scout for new opportunities in engaging as an advisor or for a board seat

I am interested to connect with entrepreneurs, learn about new business ideas, help raise funds, give advise, or execute strategic initiatives.
