I’ve reviewed 1000s of startup decks, 10+ years of experience in VC in USA in various roles: VC Partner, Head of Investor Relations, 2x founder.

Most writers can put words on a page. Very few understand the room the words are walking into. I do. I served as Chief of Staff and Communications Director to the Global Chairman of a private equity firm - operating across New York and Dubai, writing for boardrooms, governments, and principals who have no tolerance for anything less than exact. Before that, I spent years at the highest levels of American political life - advising at the executive level, supporting presidential and Senate-level campaigns, and building coalitions that moved initiatives and outcomes at national scale. I've ghostwritten for executives, public figures, and athletes. I've built pitch decks that secured investments. I've written speeches delivered on national stages. I've crafted narratives for international institutions and brands that needed to sound like they belonged in rooms they were still trying to enter. What I actually do: I take what you're trying to say - your pitch, your vision, your ask - and I make it land the way it was meant to. Pitch decks. Speeches. Executive ghostwriting. Proposals. Long-form thought leadership. High-stakes communications of any kind. I'm not a typical Upwork hire. I'm what you bring in when the stakes are real and the writing has to be right. Bilingual - English and Spanish, native level. Available globally. If you've read this far, you already know whether we're a fit.

I build investor-ready and transaction-ready materials for founders, funds, family offices, private companies, and operators preparing for important capital moments: pitch decks, CIMs, business plans, financial models, lender packages, investor memos, board materials, and strategic partner decks. I’m an Expert-Vetted freelancer on Upwork, ranked in the Top 1%, with work that has helped clients raise over $150 million in capital and support more than $2.7 billion in enterprise value. That work has contributed to two $1B+ fintech platforms and several companies now valued at over $200 million. Most of my work comes down to one thing: helping smart teams turn complex businesses into clear, credible materials that investors, lenders, buyers, boards, and strategic partners can actually use to make decisions. Over the past several years, I’ve built across three ventures: a direct-to-consumer athletic apparel subscription brand, a mobile fintech startup, and my consulting practice. I also served as Chief Executive Officer of AgentLoop, an investor-backed global PropTech company reimagining the home-buying experience. Before building on my own, I completed Robert W. Baird’s leadership rotational development program inside one of the country’s leading middle-market investment banks. The program placed me across more than 20 functions of the firm, giving me a practical understanding of how capital markets organizations operate across divisions, from investment banking and fixed income to fund management, private equity, private wealth, operations, research, and business development. That experience gave me a direct view into how capital moves, how sophisticated financial institutions make decisions, and how institutional-quality materials need to be structured. I bring that investment-bank rigor into every investor and transaction document I build: clear narrative, disciplined financial logic, rigorous process, and materials built for serious decision-makers. I work with companies and investors across AI, fintech, PropTech, SaaS, marketplaces, e-commerce, luxury mobility (hybrid/electric hypercars, eVTOLs, eJets), regulated industries, sustainability, education, and consumer brands.

I focus on building materials with strong positioning, clean financial logic, credible assumptions, disciplined design, and the precise information investors, lenders, acquirers, and committees need to make decisions. Clients have used my work to secure funding from: ✅ Private investors and global investment syndicates ✅ Venture capital firms and private equity funds ✅ SBA-approved lenders, traditional banks, and alternative financing institutions ✅ Friends, family, angels, and strategic capital partners Beyond the deliverables, I care about being the kind of partner founders and investors want in the room when the stakes are real.
