Certified Public Accountant with over 17 years of experience across iGaming, banking, and fintech. Over the years, I’ve held senior finance roles including Finance Director at Ancient Gaming — one of the largest brands in the skin-betting industry — and Interim CFO at the SiGMA Group. I specialise in helping fast-growing companies scale responsibly. My focus is on building finance functions from the ground up, implementing data-driven decision tools, and advising on corporate structuring, tax efficiency, and regulatory alignment. I’ve guided boards through cross-border re-domiciliations, M&A transactions, and complex VAT challenges across Europe. I’m also a strong believer in using technology to improve accuracy and speed. I write SQL code to automate financial reporting, rather than using clunky excel workbooks. Beyond finance, I’ve co-founded several ventures, including a SaaS platform that helps ISO consultants manage certification workflows more effectively. Writing about finance and business comes naturally to me, and I’ve contributed articles to Malta’s leading publications. At my core, I enjoy working with ambitious teams — helping them put the right financial and organisational structures in place to scale with confidence.
