“I’ve been with Caspian One for over a decade. Throughout that time, I have worked purely in KDB, Q and Market Data – building teams across the globe; from US locations in New York, Chicago and San Francisco - to London, Dublin, Hong Kong, Singapore and Sydney, Australia. These teams cover a full spectrum of capabilities, from Architects to Junior Developers.
In addition, during this time I have spearheaded our client expansion initiatives and today I co-manage the FinTech division at Caspian One alongside Phil Staples and Director, Adam Vipond. In this role I lead our business development and client engagement activities, whilst also having the opportunity to share my experiences with the team, seeing them craft rewarding careers.
I believe my success relates to the level of passion, intensity, drive and motivation I express. Much of this I learnt early in my career, through working in sales with like-minded colleagues and studying Marketing and Finance at University. More importantly, it’s my ability to create real relationships with everyone I work with that I credit highest.”
