As an Investment Associate at Next Wave Partners, I apply my skills in new business development, financial modeling, and financial analysis to source, evaluate, and execute growth and buyout investments in UK-international SMEs. With over 3 years of experience in private equity and investment banking, I have been involved in multiple transactions across various sectors, such as technology, healthcare, and consumer. Previously, I worked as an Investment Banking Associate at Zeus, where I advised clients on M&A, capital raising, and restructuring deals, and as an Assistant Manager at Mazars UK, where I managed audit engagements and provided assurance and advisory services. I hold a BA in Economics and Geography from University of Leeds, where I developed a strong foundation in quantitative and analytical skills, as well as a keen interest in the global economic and social issues. I am passionate about investing in businesses that have a positive impact on society and the environment, and that offer attractive returns for our investors and stakeholders.
