Hey there! I started my career as a mechanical engineer, and even though I loved working with machines, something always drew me to the world of startups. I was fascinated by the creativity and energy of entrepreneurs building amazing products. So, I jumped in and worked as a founder's office associate at a few startups. It was an incredible experience – I learned a ton about strategy and marketing and got to see the inner workings of a startup firsthand. Now, I'm a full-time investment banker in corporate finance. Think of me as a bridge between startups and the world of investors. Leveraging my engineering background and what I learned in the startup world, I help startups and growth-stage companies raise funds from venture capitalists and private equity firms. I basically help them craft winning pitches and connect them with the right investors to fuel their growth. But my passion goes beyond just funding. If you're a startup founder with a great idea, even if you're just brainstorming or need help with your business strategy, I'd love to chat! I'm always happy to be a sounding board and partner on your journey. Feel free to schedule a call and let's talk about how I can help turn your vision into a reality!
