• Connecting dots.

    Building bridges.

  • I’m an emerging investor with a grounded lens, working at the intersection of finance, policy, technology, and culture; focused on identifying patterns early and helping ideas hold up in real conditions, particularly across African markets.

    Now, I lead go-to-market and revenue strategy for an insurtech company, launching new products such as embedding insurance into existing fintech and telco platforms so protection fits into everyday financial behavior. In parallel, I’m building the Nouakchott Innovation Lab, supporting early, locally grounded ideas and founders before they become institutionally “obvious.”

    Alongside this, I’m a Fellow with Included VC (Africa, Class ’25), deepening my transition into venture investing by combining operational experience, ethical judgment, and local insight.
