About Me

Highly collaborative, proactive and solutions oriented professional currently in the alternative investment space. I started my career in the sell Side at Lehman Brothers working with the Foreign Exchange Desk. After a few years I transitioned to JPM Chase into the FX Options desk where learned more exotic instruments and used what I learned at Lehman to add value. Thereafter I joined the Santander Investment Securities desk in the Fixed income and Syndication Team working with Corporate and Sovereign Bonds allocating trades to our global Hedge Funds and Fund of Funds clients. From Santander, I transitioned into one of our hedge fund clients, Bladex Asset Management as Head of Operations
