EMEA Subsidiary Banker · J.P. Morgan
London, England
In My Own Words
I’m a relationship-driven financial professional with a unique edge: 20+ years as a globally recognized professional BMX athlete turned strategic advisor at one of the world’s top investment banks.
At J.P. Morgan, I support multinational corporates across EMEA by delivering integrated treasury, FX, trade, and credit solutions. I manage complex subsidiary portfolios (revenues up to $2B), align execution with global strategy, and drive commercial growth through embedded financial services.
Before entering finance, I competed on the world stage, representing the UK and building a digital brand with 1.7M+ YouTube subscribers. I led strategic brand partnerships with LG, Nissan, and others, learning how to lead, influence, and adapt in high-performance environments.
Strengths: client relationship management, payments & treasury strategy, cross-functional execution, CRM & pipeline reporting (Salesforce), and data visualization (Excel)
Now exploring how I can combine this diverse background to drive impact in finance, fintech, and beyond.
