Raising capital doesn’t have to be all stress and spreadsheets. Over the past 15 years, I’ve raised capital for my own ventures and advised more than 30 businesses through fundraising, strategy, and investor relationships. I’ve lived the full founder journey - the pressure, the doubt, the momentum swings and I’ve learned what actually moves a round forward versus what just looks good in a deck. Now, as I transition into venture capital, I bring a founder-first lens shaped by real outcomes. I don’t just understand fundraising from the investor side - I’ve been in the room when the round was on the line, when metrics needed rethinking, and when confidence mattered as much as numbers. My approach is simple: I’m here to do more than write a check. I focus on building trust, credibility, and shared conviction between founders and investors. That means sharpening strategy, strengthening narrative, and supporting founders through both the tactical and emotional realities of raising capital. I’ve helped founders move fast and win decisively - including raising £600,000 in 48 hours through WhatsApp, securing £1M with a strong lead VC after restructuring GTM and pricing, and landing a £5M term sheet in a £3M round by tightening product metrics. My current funding rounds and CEOs are: - a US/Global Workplace Optimization AI company with the largest network of co-working spaces as their marketplace and moat doing $11m GMV, raising $9.5m - a deep tech Cambridge spin-out satellite company, raising £4m - a London, UK based AI convayancing proptech platform managing the entire workflow of residential sales, raising £1.5m I lead a proptech investment syndicate with over 200 operators that I co-founded and am Venture Partner at London, UK based seed VC fund, Love Ventures. As I step further into investing, I bring my full toolkit with me: fundraising expertise, strategic clarity, and founder coaching. Capital matters...but so does mindset, resilience, and knowing how to show up with confidence when it counts. My mission is to give founders an unfair advantage in fundraising, scaling, and building investor trust and to turn tough investor conversations into accelerated momentum.
