Leading from Work
How did your career develop?
I have always been inspired by the passion that drives our clients to success. My career started in investment banking and then transitioned to wealth management. Developing deep relationships with founders and entrepreneurs has given me great joy throughout my career. I have learned from my clients that taking risks, pivoting when things do not go as planned, and investing in yourself and relationships is highly rewarding.
What’s the most important career advice you’ve received?
There are three: First, capitalize on every opportunity to interact with clients. Second, learn to work collaboratively - it takes teamwork to get deals done. Finally, be humble and don’t take yourself too seriously.
What is your role at Goldman Sachs, and how do you support clients?
I am a private banker and work with ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) clients on identifying and implementing creative borrowing solutions.
How do you lead by example?
Mentoring, having a strong work ethic, digging deeply into problems, and finding creative solutions.
What are some interesting themes and/or trends that you see in your area of expertise?
We are in a period of explosive growth in technology-related innovation. Strong capital market activity continues to create new wealth for entrepreneurs who are often looking to diversify their concentrated wealth through leverage.

Working with incredibly talented colleagues and our inspiring clients.
