Investment Philosophy & Strategy
Runs a concentrated, value-driven long/short equity strategy focused on identifying mispriced securities through deep fundamental research and catalyst-led event work. Emphasizes asymmetric risk/reward: high-conviction longs paired with disciplined short positions and rigorous position sizing to manage downside. Activist engagement and governance campaigns are used to unlock value and accelerate realizations. Investment horizon is event- and catalyst-timed rather than calendar-based, blending bottom-up stock selection with macro and credit awareness to inform capital allocation and timing.
