Born in the USA, molded in Switzerland, refined in England. 3x Ironman World Championship Competitor - Kona, Hawaii Strategic thinker and business development professional, who loves working at the crossroads of business and technology. Having lived overseas for a good portion of my life, I have a knack for understanding the global economy and how it affects currencies and commerce. My intention is to help companies and private individuals manage foreign exchange exposure and make their international payments as simple, seamless, and secure as possible - not mention at extremely competitive rates (up to 8x better than the banks).

Alliance and Partnerships Manager @ USforex is part of the OZForex Group - a global company that provides foreign exchange and international payment services across six continents. With $15 billion in foreign transactions last year and a client base of 500,000 people, we are a leader in this space and continue to grow over 20% per year! While we pride ourselves on competitive rates, our true advantage comes from a unique model of global banking relationships, uncompromising security and encryption, and a high-tech, high-touch proprietary platform with outstanding 24/7 customer service.

At USForex, we form partnerships with companies who not only operate in similar international markets, but also deliver the same extraordinary value to their customers that we do.
