With over 25 years of experience in operational efficiency and organizational success, I lead growth initiatives, forge partnerships, and identify new investment opportunities using my extensive industry knowledge and networks. I hold residency in both Miami, Florida, and Dubai, UAE.

In Miami, I specialize in the alternative investments sector, focusing on private credit and equity for commercial real estate projects, hard money, and alternative lending for businesses.

In Dubai, I have built a successful business consulting company, establishing myself as a trusted advisor specializing in company formation and structuring, legal assistance, and advisory services. Over the years, I have cultivated significant relationships with entities such as Sovereign Wealth Funds, Private Multi-Family Offices, UAE Freezone Authorities, the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, the Dubai Land Department, and local business conglomerates.

As the Regional Director for the Hedge Fund Association based in Miami, Florida, I oversee Dubai, UAE, and the Gulf Regions. I aim to bridge various alternative financial sectors, including hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, real estate, family offices, and service providers. By fostering collaboration among industry professionals, we create a dynamic network that facilitates growth and innovation between the USA and UAE.
