With over a decade of experience in investment banking, special situations, and private credit, I am currently a Principal Banker at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), specializing in corporate recovery and special situations. I structure innovative financial solutions across diverse jurisdictions in Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa, leading distressed debt restructurings, new money transactions, and strategic exits.Before joining EBRD, I was part of the Restructuring Division at the European Investment Bank (EIB), where I managed complex project finance and corporate restructurings, collaborating closely with private equity funds and institutional investors. Earlier in my career at HSBC, I gained extensive experience in structured finance and credit, working across multiple functions and geographies in Latin America and Europe.
