Education

Oxford University, King’s College London, and the University of Hong Kong

2020 – 2023

I hold an Master’s Degree in business from the University of Oxford, where I was awarded the Oxford-Saïd Foundation Scholarship. This was a full-ride scholarship based on academic merit and a GMAT score of 740 (97th percentile worldwide). While at Oxford, I studied finance, private equity, entrepreneurship, and Mandarin Chinese, and was voted “most likely to succeed” by my graduating class. Prior to that, I earned a First Class Honours BSc in Business Management from King’s College London, where I was awarded the Jelf Medal as the most distinguished student in my year. I also completed an exchange year at the University of Hong Kong, which gave me early exposure to the rapidly growing markets in Southern China. This early exposure would later bring me back to South East Asia for new career opportunities.

Experience

Amazon Web Services (AWS) – Principal

2020 – Present

As a Principal at AWS, the world’s leading provider of cloud services and infrastructure, I lead multiple account teams and am responsible for a large business area that includes the Nordics’ highest-priority enterprise customers. My work spans strategic and technical advisory with a focus on AI/ML and GenAI, deal structuring and C-suite relationship management.

Digital Fineprint (DFP) – CEO

2016 – 2020

As a graduate student at Oxford, I founded and led Digital Fineprint, a London-based FinTech company that used machine learning to build firmographic data streams for analysing business performance and risk. I grew the company to a $20M enterprise value and a team of 25, securing US$7M in venture and private equity funding from Pentech and Eos Venture Partners. DFP was acquired by Hubb Technologies and afterwards rebranded as Taveo.

Twitter – Sales Operations

2015 – 2015

I worked in Twitter’s APAC Sales Operations & Strategy team in Singapore, focused on driving revenue growth across the region. This early experience in sales operations gave me a strong foundation in Salesforce data management, forecasting, quota management and account planning that I have carried through every subsequent role.

Procter & Gamble (P&G) – Financial Analysis Manager

2012 – 2015

I started my career at Procter & Gamble in Geneva, where I managed and forecasted investments and budgets exceeding $100M per year in the Prestige division. The rigour of P&G’s analytical culture gave me a strong foundation in financial modelling, strategic planning, and operational discipline. These skills that have shaped how I approach every business challenge ever since.
