Born and raised in France to an English father and a Colombian mother, I was brought up in a multilingual and multicultural background. With my father being an investor, I became interested, from a really young age, in what makes a great company great and admired the often long-lasting founder-investor relationships.
After graduating in Economics from Durham University, I had a short stint in Management Consulting before joining an Investment Bank in London, where I worked on IPOs, M&A and equity fundraises. I was able to work on, for example, the IPO of a B2B software maritime platform, and on the sale of communication software for CRMs. When I decided to pursue my passion for investing as a professional career, Notion Capital very quickly became an obvious choice to combine my first-hand experience in B2B SaaS, as well as my long-lasting passion for investing. Within Notion, I focus on the French, Spanish and Portuguese markets.
Outside of work, you can find me playing any kind of sports (most likely looking for my golf ball or crawling through the finish line of a triathlon), travelling to see family members or spending time with friends.
