I help early-stage founders raise capital, from sharpening their pitch to navigating the fundraising process end to end.
I've spent 4+ years working across venture capital and private markets in the UK and EMEA. At Selerate Global, I advise early-stage founders on fundraising strategy and financial modelling, supporting $500K in institutional capital secured across fintech, healthtech, and climate-tech ventures.
Before that, I built and managed a 600+ company deal flow pipeline at Ajim Capital, where I sat on the investor side reviewing, screening, and reporting on deals, which means I know exactly what makes investors say yes and what makes them pass.
I have previously served as an investor judge for Women Who Tech, a US-based programme that awards equity-free grants to overlooked women-led tech startups globally, evaluating pitches and selecting finalists for funding. And I independently scout deals for a UAE-based syndicate, screening African tech opportunities for investment committee review.
My speciality is working with emerging-market founders, an underserved space where the fundraising playbook looks different, investor relationships are harder to navigate, and the right guidance is genuinely rare.
I can help you with:
Pitch deck review and investor storytelling
Fundraising strategy and investor targeting
Financial modelling for early-stage raises
Mock investor Q&A and pitch prep
Navigating VC ecosystems
If you're a founder trying to raise your first or second round and you want someone who's been on both sides of the table, let's talk.
