Living our values

In my family, education was always a priority. We often had spirited discussions on various topics, sparking my love for learning. In another life, I might have been a teacher. Apax’s value of ‘We learn, adapt, and grow’ resonates with me as it captures my constant desire to learn and evolve. This curiosity has shaped my path, both personally and professionally, and keeps me fulfilled.
