Geoffrey was drawn to the art of storytelling from an early age. Enrolling at Chapman University’s Film School, he realized his strengths lay not in directing films, but in empowering the creators who excelled at it. Motivated by this insight, Geoffrey pivoted to the Argyros School of Business at Chapman Univeristy and a license in digital marketing. In 2015—still in university—Geoffrey co-founded an online platform that connected YouTubers, anticipating their rise as cultural influencers. This venture later evolved into Kapaw, a media company now boasting over one million Gen Z and millennial subscribers across Europe.
In 2024, he joined Blue Lakes as a Partner, where he channels his entrepreneurial background into nurturing new asset classes, expanding the firm’s international presence, and driving digital transformation. Geoffrey’s role spans both client and fund-manager engagement. He focuses on niche private market asset classes, aiming to bring knowledge transfer through content, marketing support, and operational insights to a global network of investors and managers. A passionate entrepreneur at heart, he’s dedicated to perfecting the craft of building the Blue Lakes platform around capital, content and technology—providing the resources and storytelling that help visionaries grow.
Married and a father of two, Geoffrey lives in Switzerland.
I’m primarily devoted to marketing and relationship-building, ensuring we communicate our managers’ stories clearly and add real value for investors. Part of that involves digital transformation, where we blend technology and engaging content to help clients discover new asset classes—like infrastructure—more effectively.
My experience launching Kapaw taught me how critical it is to empower talented individuals, whether they’re content creators or fund managers. I bring that same mindset to Blue Lakes, where I see investment firms and their founders as true innovators who deserve tailored support in scaling and storytelling.
Building trust is central to meaningful partnerships. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs and being a longtime football player, I’ve seen how aligning on goals and values creates lasting bonds—whether on the field or in business. At Blue Lakes, I make sure every relationship, both internal and external, reflects mutual respect and shared purpose.
I’m fascinated by discovering the next bold idea or visionary manager—someone whose craft and commitment can reshape entire sectors. Helping them realize that potential, while also delivering value to our investors, fuels my passion every day.
