As a mathematician turned finance professional, I’ve dedicated my career to merging finance with analytics to fuel growth for tech companies like Uber and Babylon Health. I’ve built global finance and analytics systems from the ground up and am deeply committed to Moonfire’s mission of creating a tech-driven, data-focused VC.

After earning my MSc in Mathematics and Physics from Cambridge University, I embarked on a career that would leverage my analytical skills. I began as an investment banker at Credit Suisse, where I spent four years working on financings and cross-border M&A transactions for software and healthcare companies. Working closely with tech founders from private equity to IPOs, I was drawn to the fast-paced startup environment and passion of entrepreneurs, leading me to join Uber.

There, I built the FP&A and analytics team for Northern Europe’s rider/driver support, transforming manual reports into a platform managing millions of weekly interactions. My time at Uber deepened my enthusiasm for high-growth tech companies, prompting me to join Babylon Health as one of the first Finance and Analytics hires. I built and scaled the FP&A and Analytics functions for Babylon’s global operations from scratch, scaling from thousands of patients to millions. I also played a key role in fundraising and investor relations, working closely with the CEO and CFO on Babylon’s $550M Series C in 2019.

Following this, I joined Flow Neuroscience as CFO/COO, where I helped scale the business from under $0.5M ARR to $8M ARR, secured successful financing rounds, and saved over $3M in costs. At Moonfire, I lead Finance and am building out their data analytics machine. I am deeply committed to Moonfire’s approach of making every process tech and data driven - a philosophy that has defined my career.

My focus on integrating advanced analytics into finance and operations functions has been key to scaling high-growth startups, and I’m excited to bring this experience to Moonfire’s journey.
