As a mathematician turned finance and operating professional, I’ve spent my career helping high-growth technology companies make better decisions, scale their operations and navigate pivotal moments of growth. My journey has taken me from investment banking, to building finance and analytics functions at Uber and Babylon Health, to operating as CFO and COO at an early-stage healthcare company, and now to helping build Moonfire as a data-driven venture firm.

After earning my degree in Mathematics from Cambridge University, I began my career in investment banking at Credit Suisse, working across M&A and equity capital markets with a particular focus on software and healthcare companies. This gave me an early grounding in fundraising, strategic transactions and the financial decisions that shape companies at important moments in their development.

I then moved into technology at Uber, where I was one of the early analytics hires in Europe. My role sat across analytics, operations and strategy as the business expanded rapidly across EMEA, building systems and teams to support millions of weekly trips.

At Babylon Health, I joined as one of the first hires across Finance and Analytics and went on to build and lead its global FP&A, analytics and data science functions. I worked closely with the CEO and CFO as the company scaled from an early-stage business to a global healthcare platform, including supporting multiple fundraising rounds, its $550 million Series C and subsequent listing on the New York Stock Exchange.

I then joined Flow Neuroscience as CFO and COO, overseeing finance, operations and analytics as the business scaled from pre-revenue to approximately $10 million of ARR. During that time, I helped lead the company’s Series A and Series B financings and built much of the operational infrastructure required to support its growth.

At Moonfire, I lead finance and operations across the Firm and its funds, while also working closely with the partnership on fundraising, investor relations, governance and Firm strategy. I also help shape how Moonfire uses data across sourcing, investment analysis and portfolio insights, and work directly with founders on areas including financial modelling, fundraising, positioning and scaling their businesses.
