As Senior Vice President and the Director of Corporate Credit and Economic Research I oversee teams that conduct and provide fundamental analysis of global investment grade, high yield and emerging-market corporate debt as well as sovereign issuers and global economic analysis. Additionally, I am responsible for driving the corporate credit research outlook for the fixed-income department and sit on multiple internal investment committees. I am proud to have authored several published papers, including topics related to corporate defaults and fallen angels during COVID, inflation risks, and rising star candidates. Earlier in my tenure at AB, I was responsible for coverage of the high-yield telecom, cable, satellite, and media sectors. Prior to joining the firm in 2013, I held various roles at UBS Investment Bank including managing director and head of the High Yield and Investment Grade Credit Analyst team, senior analyst covering high-yield and investment-grade telecom, media and technology and served as an equity analyst covering the telecom sector. Before joining UBS, I was an equity analyst at Bear Stearns and Wasserstein Perella. I enjoy spending my free time with my family, travelling, cooking, playing guitar and participating in my favorite sports including soccer, golf and skiing.
