As the Head of Data and Digital Solutions at ISDA, the global trade association for the derivatives industry, I lead a multinational team of 20 and oversee ISDA’s entire data and digital innovation portfolio. With more than two decades of experience at the intersection of financial services, quantitative risk, and advanced analytics, I have held senior roles across top-tier institutions including CME Group, HSBC, Investec, and ISDA itself.
My expertise spans enterprise risk management, algorithmic systems design, and machine learning deployment in regulated environments. I bring a deep technical foundation in computer science and software engineering, combined with strategic certifications in leadership, agile delivery, AI/ML, and digital transformation.
At the core of my work is a commitment to anticipating and shaping the future of financial infrastructure. I specialize in driving end-to-end digital transformation initiatives, delivering industry-scale solutions that reduce systemic risk, optimize efficiency, and align with evolving regulatory standards. As a co-founder of a FinTech venture, I helped build a turnkey SaaS platform that operationalizes macro financial causal inference using automated machine learning (AutoML) and generative AI.
MACRA.AI reflects this mission: to create transparent, dynamic, and institutionally robust tools for macroeconomic forecasting, powered by Bayesian inference, AI-enhanced priors, and scenario calibration. My leadership ethos is rooted in rigorous learning, cross-disciplinary thinking, and strategic collaboration with global C-suite leaders and policy stakeholders.
