A Little About Me

Your Photo Here

Hello, and welcome to my little corner of the internet.

I'm a Vice President at Jefferies, where I work in Private Capital Advisory — helping institutions navigate the secondary market for private fund interests. Before Jefferies, I spent time at Greenhill & Co., always driven by the same conviction: that private markets can be made more efficient, more transparent, and more human.

Outside of deal-making, I'm a builder at heart. I write code, play violin, study languages, and travel as often as I can. I believe in unencumbered thinking, technical proficiency, and organized reliability. This site is my den: a quiet place to collect projects, thoughts, and things that matter.
