A circular text that says Investor Relations / ESG

Hello & Welcome!

I am an Investor Relations, Communications, and Marketing professional with seven years of experience in alternative asset management and nonprofits across the U.S. and Europe. My career focuses on partnerships and the belief that business can drive social good. I was honored to be named ‘Employee of the Year’ at USAA Real Estate (now Affinius Capital) 1 out of 300 employees, for my work in advancing investor relations for a $35 billion real estate portfolio.
‍
In 2023, I received Warwick Business School’s ‘Change-Maker’ Scholarship for my leadership potential and commitment to societal impact. I am currently working on my MBA research dissertation, which I aim to complete by January 2026, exploring creativity, leadership, and innovation in business.
‍
Additionally, I serve as an art facilitator with A Window Between Worlds, a nonprofit focused on social transformation through expressive arts.
‍
If my work resonates with you, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to connect.
