WORK HISTORY
Investment Analyst @Sfumato Equity Holdings L.P
New York, NY, US
Sfumato is a long-only hedge fund that invests in under-followed micro- and small-cap equities through deep, fundamentals-based research.I work across the full investment process, sourcing ideas, building valuation models, and studying businesses that trade at meaningful discounts to intrinsic value. My focus is on identifying quality companies with durable moats, sound balance sheets, and management teams that allocate capital well.Day to day, I’m digging through filings, reviewing transcripts, writing investment memos, and working directly with the Managing Partner on portfolio decisions and thesis development.The firm follows a disciplined, concentrated approach inspired by the Buffett partnerships of the 1950s — aiming for 2–3x returns over 3–5 years by owning a few great businesses bought well.
