Venture Architecture

My entrepreneurial journey began at 16, recording local bands with a handheld microphone. Since then, I’ve continuously explored new business ideas, founding four startups and successfully exiting one. My formal training in finance and experience in emerging markets have enabled me to add substantial value to businesses. With a strong foundation in finance, I support businesses in ensuring scalability, sustainability, and desirable returns for stakeholders.
