Business Development

Business Development Consultant

My professional career began in a successful role within equities. With a background in the intricacies of economics and politics, I discovered a parallel between the commercial aspects of high-level sports like football and motorsport, reinforcing my keen interest in the market dynamics behind these industries.

However, driven by a lasting fascination for property development, rooted in the family business, I made the transition to further enhance my expertise at Zephyr X. I am excited about combining a unique blend of financial acumen and a passion for innovative property solutions to shape my career in the Capital Markets team.
