I am an investment professional working across venture capital and private equity, currently advising Deep Tech and early-stage companies on fundraising. In my current role, I support positioning Ocean Capital as a key source of international deal flow in Portugal, connecting Series A and B startups with local and European investors, and I have maintained a 100% deal close rate. Previously, as a Senior Investment Analyst at Dealflow.eu, I launched a fundraising advisory line for Deep Tech startups, unlocking access to both dilutive and non-dilutive capital through VCs and EU programs such as EIC, Horizon Europe, and EIT. I advised 3 companies on strategy, business models, and investor materials, supporting term sheet negotiations. At Doorway, I scouted and tracked 500+ startups, completed deep analysis on 30+ projects, and successfully closed 4 deals, including Contents.com at €15M. I led the investment process from sourcing to closing, handling due diligence, valuation (VC method, DCF, multiples), market analysis, and review of legal documentation. I also delivered measurable digital and eCommerce impact earlier in my career through strategic consulting and business transformation work at The Level Group and PwC.
