01 / Profile
Geopolitics, read as markets.
I work at the intersection of geopolitics and capital markets. I structure deals, size markets, and turn political and regulatory risk into commercial strategy.
International Relations graduate with expertise in strategic analysis, policy research, and cross-cultural engagement. Skilled at reading geopolitical trends, coordinating stakeholders, and solving problems in complex environments, with a strong analytical foundation and a disciplined approach to institutional work. Multilingual, and drawn to the questions where foreign policy and markets meet.
Most recently that's meant diligence and valuation work on renewable-energy M&A and a go-to-market strategy for battery storage: cross-border, capital-intensive problems where the politics and the numbers can't be read apart.
