- Hailing from a family of doctors, Healthcare has always been important for me. Through my professional and personal life, I have had the opportunity to travel across developing markets and witness first-hand the inefficiencies and problems in accessing and obtaining quality healthcare. Launching a platform to address the inefficiencies has been a lifelong dream.
- Prior to PHV, I worked at an emerging markets focused Investment Bank – Arqaam Capital – for 9 years, starting with Corporate Finance (M&A, capital raise) and moving to Group Strategy. Healthcare and Technology were key sectors of focus throughout.
- Started my career at Deloitte in New York in 2006.
