About

CFO at Attention and founder of Praxis — operating at the intersection of financial governance and company building.

Background spanning multi-entity structures and cross-border operations. Engaged in high-complexity financial environments where conventional frameworks don’t apply.

Currently leading financial strategy across Attention's media, ventures, and capital platform — while simultaneously building Praxis, an AI-driven personal style platform. Operating across the Middle East and into global capital markets.

I operate across both the CFO seat and the founder seat, bringing capital discipline and execution into businesses being built in real time.

Operating within environments where capital, operators, and opportunities intersect.

Trusted in situations where capital, timing, and execution matter.

Philosophy

Clarity over noise. Structure over chaos.

Precision in decisions. Discipline in execution.

Personal Discipline

Martial arts and salsa sharpen the same qualities that matter in business: timing, composure, discipline, and pattern recognition.

Martial Arts

Discipline, precision, and control

The practice of eliminating excess — each movement deliberate, each decision final.

Salsa

Rhythm, timing, and presence

The art of reading a partner, a room, a moment — and moving with intention.

Precision in practice. Composure under pressure. The same discipline runs through both.
