Investment Philosophy & Strategy

A concentrated, opportunistic investor favoring distressed credit, special situations and deeply out-of-favor equities. Focuses on event-driven and macro-driven dislocations where size and speed create edge, allocating large, high-conviction positions with active risk management and tight stop/hedge discipline. Blends short- to medium-term trading agility with multi-year positions in restructurings and private opportunities. Prefers value-oriented, catalyst-ready opportunities across credit and small-to-mid cap equities, leveraging proprietary research and market-making scale.
