After earning a degree in Development Studies, I began my career in microfinance impact research in India, collaborating with organizations to set up randomized evaluations. I then moved to the banking sector, focusing on risk management and client relations at Citigroup and HSBC in London, Paris, and Taiwan.

Leveraging these experiences, I returned to development and established a social enterprise in Cambodia. Following four years there, I joined Phitrust, a Social Impact Investing fund in Paris, where I spent four years investing in social enterprises across Europe and Africa.
