I am a Brazilian-born and Virginia-educated finance geek with a passion for working alongside, and sharing the unique stories of incredible brands and companies. I believe excellence is only achieved through a disciplined focus on repeated, continuous improvement on a singular subject. At Harris Williams, we do exactly that – our focus on M&A advisory, commitment to execution excellence, and investment in employees allows us to continuously set the benchmark.
