I am a trade finance and fintech executive focused on building more inclusive and resilient trade finance ecosystems across Africa and emerging markets.

I serve as Head of Sales and Partnerships at Finverity, where I work with banks, NBFIs and corporates across Africa, the Middle East and Europe to deploy digital supply chain finance and working capital solutions. Through this work, I have supported trade finance programmes across more than 14 countries, helping financial institutions move from manual processes to scalable digital infrastructure that can improve visibility, risk management and access to finance for SME supply chains.

I am also Co-Chair of the Africa Regional Council of the International Trade and Forfaiting Association and Africa Chair of the Trade Finance Conference of Parties, where I lead and support practitioner-led initiatives on SME trade finance, local currency finance, capacity building and market infrastructure.

In 2023, I founded the Women in Trade Network, now connecting 600+ women across 16+ countries. The network creates visibility, mentorship, speaking opportunities and business connections for women working across trade finance, banking, fintech, development finance and related sectors.
