"I love meeting mangement teams and entrepreneurs who are passionate about the growth of their businesses - and are keen to bring on investors equally passionate about growth."

I am the Head of Research for Primary. I joined Primary in 2017 and lead our direct origination efforts and our post-acquisition M&A identification.

I love meeting mangement teams and entrepreneurs who are passionate about the growth of their businesses - and are keen to bring on investors equally passionate about growth. 

Prior to joining Primary, I received a degree in Sociology and Russian Studies from Princeton University. I also spent three years at AlphaSights, a financial information services business, in London and in Hong Kong working with mid-market private equity clients.
