By leveraging the $2.5 million in funding, I orchestrated the expansion to two additional revenue streams, thereby transitioning their $3.4 million annual revenue model to a $24 million annual revenue model. This involved opening up the B2B model to a B2C approach, driving significant growth and success. In the healthcare industry, I've made significant contributions through keynote speaking engagements at Vanderbilt Pulmonology (2017 & 2018) on the Dangers of Vaping and securing partnerships with institutions like Georgia Tech and Emory to land NIH grants through reverse tech transfer initiatives. I've had the privilege of landing a Fortune 500 CEO for my first company, ULIV, and being interviewed by Kevin Harrington, the founder of Shark Tank, for the Ideacon podcast in 2017. And just recently attained my first Utility Patent for a Medical Device with another in the pipeline. Now, as an advisor, mentor, and board member for over 8 companies, I am excited to work with others and help them focus on achieving their goals. For more than 10 years, I've successfully facilitated strategic planning retreats/sessions, created business plans, startup plans, successful websites, financial projections, investor pitch decks, pricing models, product specs/definitions/plans, marketing strategies and plans, sales strategies and plans, and company & product launch plans. Additionally, I've mentored numerous founders, CEOs & management teams, developed branding strategies, messaging, value propositions, mission & vision statements, marketing tactics, websites, sales presentations, marketing materials, trade journal articles, product strategies, detailed product specifications, initial contract drafts, reviewed contacts from a business and risk perspective, developed term sheets for mergers, acquisitions, funding, written job descriptions, and helped interview candidates. 🌟Services I specialize in: ● Creating investor-ready pitch decks (Speaking Notes, Content, and Design) ● Redesigning existing investor pitch decks ● Providing insightful pitch deck and fundraising consulting ● Optimizing business models for increased company valuation ● Strategizing to dominate market share ● Maximizing growth potential through innovative solutions within current business models ● Developing comprehensive product strategies ● Conducting market research and case studies ● Product Roadmapping and market placement ● Defining the full product scope for successful launches 🌟 Areas of Expertise: ●Biotechnology and B2B Services ● Consumer and Luxury Industries ● Manufacturing and Cannabis Sectors ● E-commerce and Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) ● Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) (portfolio market specific) ● Pharmaceutical, Healthcare, and Medtech Fields ● Software as a Service (SaaS) and Technology ● Financial Technology (Fintech) and Capital Raising ● Pitch Decks and Investor Presentations ● Information Memorandum and Pitchbook Development ● Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) ● Financial Modeling and Investor Strategy In today's competitive fundraising arena, the quality of your pitch deck is non-negotiable.

    I am a real estate professional focused on the acquisition of quality, cash flowing buildings as well as the ongoing analysis and maintenance of our 65+ property/$275 million portfolio. My background is in accounting where I hold my Master's of Public Accountancy, but my experience has come from bank lending and real estate acquisitions. My goal is to provide clients on UpWork with detailed financial models of whatever task they need completed. I have modeled finances for every size company from billion dollar public companies while at Deloitte, to small business loans while working as a commercial lender, and now I focus on investments in commercial real estate properties that are valued at somewhere between $5-$40 million. I will model with a focus on your specific needs in any financial situation. I will also provide acquisition knowledge as far as due diligence lists, underwriting tactics, and closing advice. I also have a passion for personal finance and would love to provide family budgets, trackers, etc. that I have created and used for my family. This is strictly a nights/weekend type opportunity for me, but I can turn things around very quickly if that timeline works for you.
