Bio
An avid fan of computer games, film, and board games, I had to put these hobbies on hold in the past few years, as my wife and I welcomed two sons into the world. The same goes for football, tennis, and other ball games I enjoy. Nonetheless, a good tradeoff if you ask me! In the past few years, I have been increasingly enjoying playing chess.
Being a son of a pilot led to another passion of mine - travelling. Being able to experience different cultures & mentalities first hand has largely shaped my perspective on life from early teenage years into adulthood. Despite having graduated in political science & international relations, I’ve always been fascinated by economics & trade - the years I’ve spent playing Diablo II were mostly filled with trading, understanding the evershifting nature of the game’s internal economy, as opposed to just running around and defeating enemies.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say I’ve spent nearly my entire career at Credo. I began as an intern in 2013, and after having worked at Google for 1 year in 2024, I joined the company full time in March 2015 - and never left. Having tried several roles, I settled in the CFO role, being responsible for smooth operations of our venture firm & its VC funds in several jurisdictions. I also like to get my hands dirty with the more complicated investments, where I get to collaborate with my colleagues while utilizing my analytical mind.
Credo’s global focus, new deals happening every month, being able to observe (and invest in) the very latest innovative software, and, last but not least, working with people you look forward to seeing in the office is what has made me stay at Credo for such a long time.
