About

I’m an Investment Operations and Credit Ratings professional with 5+ years of experience across credit ratings, structured finance, deal execution support, and financial data management. Currently, I work with HPS Investment Partners, where I manage rating agency workflows, CUSIP/PPN issuance, CLO credit estimate requests, investment documentation, and insurance-focused reporting. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with leading rating agencies including Fitch, Moody’s, S&P, and KBRA, supporting the end-to-end lifecycle of private credit and structured finance transactions. My role also involves tracking newly closed deals and amended investments to determine rating requirements,coordinate rating agency requests,and to ensure onboarding them into internal platforms, setting up loan and bond instruments, and ensuring accurate investment data management. Before moving into investment operations, I worked at LSEG, where I specialized in M&A, Private Equity, and Venture Capital datasets, conducting financial research and managing complex transaction data across global markets. I enjoy bringing structure to complex processes, improving operational efficiency, and collaborating with teams to support informed investment decisions. My key areas of interest include private credit, structured finance, credit ratings, deal execution, and alternative investments. Always open to connecting with professionals in investment management, credit markets, and financial services.
