How and why did you get into this business?

I started on the buy-side as an intern while completing my M.B.A. at UC Berkeley. I was attracted to the challenge of finding value in a business before it was widely recognized.

 

Why did you choose to work in frontier investing?

The challenge of creating value in a dynamic and diverse investment universe.

 

What do you like to do in your downtime away from work?

Gardening and cooking, from my backyard to my dinner plate. I also play indoor soccer.
