Over 15 years in financial services - from lending in the UK to investment banking in Africa and advisory in the Middle East, I've learned that finance isn't just about numbers. It's about possibilities. About helping people bring ideas to life. Outside of Risecap, I make music designed to uplift and inspire. Over 4 million streams later, it still feels surreal. But it's all connected - I'm wired to create positive impact, and I built Risecap to reflect that: helping businesses grow on their own terms gets me closer to feeling fulfilled.

With over 10 years in property and finance, I’ve learned this: behind every deal is a person with a story. I thrive in the complex cases, helping clients through tricky situations and turning stress into relief. Finance can feel overwhelming, but I’m here to make it feel a little easier, one conversation at a time.

I’m a fourth-generation entrepreneur from a family that’s been building businesses for over 150 years. Growing up in a self-funded sports retail business taught me that, when used well, debt can fuel growth without giving up equity.

Today, I lead acquisition finance at Risecap, specialising in search funds, MBOs and cash flow lending. Outside work, I enjoy writing music, reading Marcus Aurelius and scuba diving. I believe in building businesses, and relationships, that stand the test of time.

I’ve always been drawn to the systems behind great lending - the parts that make funding faster, fairer, and more founder-friendly.

Before Risecap, I helped build the credit engine for other SME lenders. Now, I design the journeys, decision logic, and lender-matching flows that help our clients move from stress to solution with speed and confidence.

I met Tony while starting my own business and the rest is history. My background spans law, construction, and fundraising, but it’s here at Risecap that I’ve found true fulfillment. Whether it’s a working capital top-up or a complex growth deal, I love helping founders fund the next stage.Off the clock, I’m always chasing a personal best in the gym or reminiscing about my sporting days. On the field or in finance, I bring two values that ground me: integrity and a daily drive to improve.

I came to finance through economics, with minors in mathematics and statistics. My dissertation examined the gap between what people say drives their decisions and what actually does. That grounding in evidence over assumption is what I aim to bring to every deal.

At Risecap, I work on deal structuring and lender applications. Outside work, I swim, write poetry and am always on the hunt for a good cup of coffee.

After years in marketing, I’ve found my sweet spot: helping ideas connect. Whether it’s breaking down funding topics or crafting content that speaks to founders and CFOs, I enjoy making complex things feel clear and valuable. It’s a privilege to support Risecap’s mission to demystify finance and help businesses grow with confidence.
