I’m proud to share that I have joined ATFX MENA as Vice President of Sales.

This new chapter represents more than a title, it’s a commitment to performance, responsibility, and long-term vision in an industry that is evolving faster than ever.

In our business, one truth remains constant:

For sales teams, traders, IBs, asset managers, and startups seeking liquidity the foundation is everything.

Only brokers built on:

• Stable and scalable technology
• True Tier 1 liquidity
• Strong and disciplined risk management

…are the ones that can operate consistently, protect clients, and sustain growth in all market conditions.

Longevity in this industry isn’t about promises — it’s about systems.

I’m grateful for the opportunity, hungry for the challenge, and excited for this relocation to the Dubai office to begin a new phase of growth and leadership.

Looking forward to building strong partnerships and creating real value across the region.
