“I was drawn to private equity by the combination of the analytical aspect of finance with the opportunity to gain a holistic understanding of businesses and how a strategy is formulated and executed over the long-term.”
Prior to joining Advent I worked in the M&A team at Lazard on a range of transactions primarily in the healthcare, renewables and infrastructure sectors. I graduated from the University of Melbourne with a Master of Engineering (with Distinction), a Diploma of Languages (Chinese) and a Bachelor of Commerce.
Away from work I keep active and go kayaking, running and skiing as much as I can. I love the city of Melbourne and enjoy all the sport and musicevents, restaurants, cafes and bars that it has to offer.
