I am a seasoned financial advisory executive with more than 10 years of progressive experience in international project finance, corporate advisory, due diligence, and structured capital solutions. As Chief Advisory Officer at Profitist Finance Consultancy and Principal Advisor and Co-Founder of Nexus Advisory & Co., I lead complex cross-border engagements for corporations, banks, insurance companies, infrastructure promoters, and microfinance institutions. I specialize in project documentation review, institutional funding, trade finance, SBLC and bank guarantee arrangements, private placement programs, asset monetization, and credit rating advisory. I have built senior-level client relationships across the GCC and international markets, facilitated partnerships with funding institutions in Europe, Africa, and Mauritius, and delivered advisory solutions grounded in analytical rigor, discretion, integrity, and long-term value creation. Earlier in my career, I managed end-to-end procurement for scientific and technical organizations, including international sourcing, tender evaluation, supplier negotiations, import documentation, compliance, and budget monitoring. I hold an MBA in Business and Accounting with a focus on financial management and corporate finance, and I also contribute as a guest lecturer in corporate finance and financial advisory.
