About me: Prior to starting the MBA programme at London Business School, I spent close to four years in business development at Visa, managing relationships and finding collaborative business growth opportunities with some of the Philippines’ largest banks. I worked closely with senior client stakeholders to develop growth strategies, structure commercial partnerships and bring new products and solutions to market, giving me a broad perspective on the payments ecosystem in an emerging market.
Having built my career in payments, I saw the MBA at London Business School as an opportunity to broaden my strategic perspectives, deepen my understanding of technology and explore the future of financial services in a more global context. I was particularly drawn to London Business School’s diverse international community and its location in London, one of the world’s leading fintech hubs.
Outside of London Business School, I love exploring new places and I’m always planning my next trip!
Three topics I can be approached about: Fintech and payments; Women in Business; moving to London.
