About

Card Acquiring & Growth | Forex | iGaming | Crypto | Prop Trading

17 years sounds like a lot until you realise I started when I was twelve, or at least that is what I tell myself when LinkedIn reminds me of my work anniversaries.That thought has followed me through global markets, fintech, and fund services, and it keeps pulling me toward the same kind of work: walking into something tangled and high-stakes, sitting with it long enough to understand it properly, and then making it feel simple and manageable for the people whose business depends on it.At qashqade, that looked like helping fund administrators and GPs, LPs stop drowning in manual fee calculations and waterfall spreadsheets so they could focus on the decisions that actually matter. Before that, I spent years building and running FX desks across LATAM and EMEA, designing solutions for institutions and private clients who needed someone they could trust to manage real risk with real money.Now at payabl. I am doing the same thing in payments and acquiring, because behind every settlement cycle and every dispute ratio is a business trying to grow and a founder trying to sleep at night.I do not need to be the smartest person in the room, I just need to be the most useful one, and I have found that the best work happens when you put the problem at the centre and your ego somewhere else entirely.If you are navigating anything in the world of transaction rails, card acquiring, or payment infrastructure and want an honest conversation with no pitch attached, I would genuinely like to hear what you are working through.
