Distinct shells carrying a filed role for this person — not every shell they have ever touched.
SEC-verified vehicles of the same sponsor, predating these roles and carrying none of them. The badge counts them; the figure beside this one does not.
Mergers closed across all 2 — these vehicles and the franchise's earlier ones together.
Announced but not closed, and still hunting — again over all 2.
No closed vehicle here has both a stored price and a filed trust value to score it against.

She is recognized as a frequent speaker at industry conferences, a university lecturer, and a business mentor, with a particular expertise in fostering collaborations between financial institutions, investors, and FinTech startups.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0001966639 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 95 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 51 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
