Ramy Gabal is a Funding Manager at Big Think Capital. After an early career as a restaurant entrepreneur, he developed a firsthand understanding of the challenges business owners face, which ultimately led him to transition into the alternative lending space three years ago. Since then, he has made it his mission to help entrepreneurs—particularly those in the restaurant industry—gain honest, transparent, and reliable access to capital. Ramy takes a hands-on, collaborative approach with every client, working closely with them to map out practical strategies and actionable roadmaps that they can confidently execute. He believes funding is only one piece of the puzzle, and he takes pride in helping clients build a foundation for sustainable growth, while also staying engaged and celebrating their progress along the way.
Beyond his professional work, Ramy brings a unique creative edge to everything he does, having spent the past eight years moonlighting as a ghostwriter for several stand-up comedians. This experience has sharpened his wit and perspective, often helping him connect with clients in a more personal and relatable way. He's also known for his memorable quirks—like being a diehard New York Knicks fan while simultaneously remaining a lifelong New England Patriots supporter, a combination that tends to confuse just about everyone. In his downtime, Ramy embraces his love for high-quality coffee as a self-proclaimed gourmet coffee snob, often grinding his own beans and perfecting his brew. Above all, he is deeply relationship-driven, known for thoughtful details like never forgetting a client's birthday—something he takes pride in as part of building lasting, meaningful connections with the people he works with.
