Alex has been great in helping us sort out our financials and implement strategic policies that improved our PnL. I've already recommended him multiple times, even to friends, because of the values he's been able to add for us.
Alex and his team work quickly and can take on significant challenges. Alex's business skills are professional and a good blend of practical and theoretical in one package. Through working together since 2018, he knows our company well and is a trusted advisor.
Following a decade as CFO and co-founder of Amiko — a regulated MedTech business with a UK/Italian group structure — I now focus on fractional CFO and strategic finance advisory mandates for founder-led and growth-stage businesses.
I work across fundraising, financial restructuring, non-dilutive funding, and cross-border structures. My background combines hands-on financial execution with board-level governance across Europe, Southeast Asia and the US.
I bring a methodical, data-driven approach to complex financial decisions — including AI-assisted modelling, game-theoretical negotiation analysis and scenario frameworks — and I work selectively with clients and situations I can genuinely move forward.
I work with a small number of clients at a time. If you're building something ambitious and need serious finance leadership, I'd like to hear from you.
