Rana Mallah

Economist by training, advisor and investor by trade, builder by instinct.

Hi, I'm Rana. I thrive on the kind of challenge that pulls me into a flow state: when things are messy and the stakes are high. My instinct is to make sense of the system first, then work my way through it iteratively: testing, building, learning, and looking for the more original answer. I trained as an economist, spent a couple of years in the middle of post-pandemic financial markets at a hedge fund, then consulting taught me how to really influence people. I move between the big picture and the detail, and I'd take first-principles thinking over a playbook any day. Outside work, you'll find me at a rave, off travelling somewhere new, or out biking on the trails.
