Hobbies

Outside finance

Outside of finance, I enjoy playing alto saxophone, soccer, swimming, and video games. I am a Chelsea supporter, and I also follow the business side of the gaming industry, including video game company mergers, acquisitions, and strategic alternatives. Examples include Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard, reported EA transaction discussions, and the strategic options surrounding Ubisoft.

Music and technology

I am also interested in combining music and technology by building a coding-based page that converts sheet music for alto saxophone, making it easier to adapt, practice, and organize music digitally.
