ABOUT JOHN

Banker turned
builder.

I spent more than 25 years in global financial markets, including over two decades at Citi, building businesses, teams and relationships across capital markets.

Today I work differently. I advise companies, build businesses, write, teach and connect people who should probably already know each other.

The common thread is curiosity: understanding people, spotting patterns and turning ideas into action.
