I'm happy to advise on all aspects of a hedge fund career, from LinkedIn and resume review to fund launch and portfolio management. I manage a hedge fund I founded with a partner in 2020 focused on mispriced securities of all kinds in North America and Europe. I've sat on a public company board and help manage an educational endowment. Previously, I was a Principal at Taconic Capital Advisors, where I worked for almost 20 years and managed investments including convertible securities, distressed credit, special situations and long-short equities. I managed our London office and European business for 8 years and launched and managed public and private investments in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, and Chile. My first full-time job was as an investment banking analyst at JP Morgan after I graduated from Harvard.

I'm currently a CIO, Portfolio Manager at a hedge fund and have spent my career across investment banking, consulting, venture capital, and buy-side investing. I help aspiring and early-career investors think more clearly about markets, stock selection, and portfolio construction. Whether you’re preparing for a hedge fund interview, refining a stock pitch, or developing your own investing framework, I focus on how professional investors actually evaluate ideas. We can work through thesis development, valuation logic, risk analysis, position sizing, and how to defend an investment under pressure. I also help candidates prepare for buy-side interviews with practical mock sessions. These sessions are direct, practical, and grounded in real-world investing and not theory.

I’m an investment professional with 10+ years across hedge funds, private equity–style investing, and structured/alternative credit, currently at Kawa Capital and previously at Obra Capital, Hudson Structured Capital Management, and Canyon Partners. My background combines hands-on deal work, portfolio management, and investment due diligence with direct involvement in recruiting and mentoring analysts and associates trying to break into buy-side roles. I draw on an MSc in Finance & Private Equity from the London School of Economics and a BA in Economics & Mathematics from Cornell University to help candidates sharpen their technical skills, tell a coherent story, and target the right platforms and strategies for their profile. As a coach, I focus on practical, no-nonsense guidance on resumes, networking, and interview prep so you understand how investors actually think and can position yourself competitively in a crowded hedge fund and private equity recruiting market.
