About
A strong leader with a proven track record of:
• improving return outcomes for investors through enhancing portfolio design and management.
• asset growth through leading and supporting sales and client service.
• successfully managing teams of investment professionals.
Senior Portfolio Manager with 12 years of experience managing systematic factor-based portfolios at Dimensional Fund Advisors – a global leader in factor investing with over USD$600 billion in assets under management. Currently oversee a team responsible for managing equity, REIT, listed infrastructure, and multi-asset portfolios.
Another primary responsibility at Dimensional is supporting the sales team in a client CIO capacity with expertise in asset allocation, factor investing (equity and fixed interest), implementation and manager selection. This includes prospecting and servicing large institutions based in APAC, attending ICs of large Australian financial advisor and wealth organizations, presenting at large institutional and advisor conferences.
Working at Russell and Sunsuper, my experience was focused on the construction and management of multi-manager portfolios. The asset classes mainly covered were equities and hedge funds and to a lesser extent fixed interest. Responsibilities included manager research, asset allocation and portfolio design.
Finally, I am currently an Adjunct Lecturer at Macquarie Business School (Macquarie University). I teach numerous core subjects for Master of Applied Finance and Business Administration students covering, among others, asset pricing, valuation, corporate finance, derivatives and financial risk management. Passing on practical knowledge onto aspiring investment professionals is incredibly rewarding.
