Professional Profile
Finance professional with 6+ years of experience in financial analysis, strategic planning, and cross-border operations. Expertise spans AdTech, international trade, and financial services — supporting budgeting, forecasting, profitability modeling, and P&L management.
I've led financial operations for a multi-country startup, consulted on trade expansion and duty-free compliance, and contributed to reconciliation and risk reduction at Lloyds Banking Group. My focus is on investment strategy, corporate finance, venture capital, private equity, and fintech — currently advancing through an MBA in Business & Data Analytics and select SIE certifications.
