Portfolio Manager - Vitus Capital Partners

Family Office List • Full-time

Apr 2011 - Present • 15 yrs 4 mos

└─ Executed cross-border interventions: exited deteriorating jurisdictions ahead of instability, rebuilt banking and custody relationships across 31 countries, and relocated family members and assets under time pressure, every time, before the window closed. └─ Delivered the full portfolio mandate across public and private markets: +20% annual compounding over 14 years, realized drawdowns cut by +50%, a broken PE pilot exited (+70% admin drag reduction), and external-manager performance rebuilt (+20% lift). └─ Built and defended the family mandate: established governance from scratch, held all parties to it when discipline was tested, and restructured it as the family changed — keeping one framework intact across 14 years of evolving dynamics.
