I have been in private equity/ venture capital for the past 25 years. I worked for several years with BDC Capital, a $3 billion venture capital fund. Companies that I have been directly involved in have raised over $200M of venture capital and have achieved exits of $1.6 billion. I love working with very early stage companies. I provide a lot of value in getting your business ready for investment. I will offer very blunt feedback and help you position your company for success. I can provide feedback on the business plan, presentation, etc. In exceptional cases I can make introductions to investors that I believe will have a high likelihood of investing. I have been honored for my achievements. I have been a Business Pitch Judge at the prestigious Rice Business Plan Competition and Banff Venture Forum. I have also judged several international Pitch Competitions. I advise technology companies all over the world. I also act as a consultant on operational issues. I have also completed a few turnarounds as well. My services include: - Winning pitch decks - Financial Models - forecasting, analysis, problem solving - Investor pitch decks, strategy and identification of appropriate investors.. - Business planning and Strategic Consulting (business plan writing, business development, strategic analysis, marketing plan, market entry strategies) - Company valuation, Mergers and Acquisitions and Due Diligence, Value Creation Plans - Inbound Private Equity - helping companies respond with a strategy on how they will invest the funds - Venture Capital Funds - Expert Witness for a BC Supreme Court Trial - Chief Financial Officer (CFO) - interim and mentoring - Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) - Market Research My knowledge of what works allows me to help you avoid common mistakes and proactively positions you to answer the tough questions. I want to give back and help others succeed. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals and dreams!

Most founders raising $1M–$10M make the same mistake: they build materials that answer their own questions instead of the investor's. After 6 years at PwC in M&A and Business Advisory and then $400M+ raised across 200+ founders in the last 7 years - I've seen exactly where rounds die. It's rarely the business. It's almost always the story, the model, or the way the materials are structured for the wrong audience. I work as your Fractional Chief Fundraising Officer. That means I own the entire capital process - from the first narrative session to the signed term sheet - so you can stay focused on building. Here's what that looks like in practice: - Investor Sentiment Analysis: Before touching a single slide, I identify what your target investors are actively deploying into right now, and what questions their investment committees are asking. Your materials are built around those answers. - Institutional-Grade Financial Modeling: PwC-trained, stress-tested, valuation-defended. Not a template. A model that holds up under the toughest diligence. - MENA & GCC Specialist : Deep relationships and insider knowledge of the Gulf capital ecosystem. If you're raising from family offices, sovereign wealth funds, or institutional investors in the region, this is a specific edge most advisors don't have. - End-to-End Deal Management: Pitch deck, data room, investor outreach, pipeline management, and closing mechanics. I don't hand you a deck and disappear. Recent results: $35M raised for Zenith Chain (blockchain infrastructure), $48M for Horizon at Nomi (real estate fund), $1.5M closed in 60 days for Vinesia (Web3 alt-assets). I only take 2 new clients a month. If you're raising $1M+ in the next 6 months and want to close faster with better terms, message me. We'll know in 20 minutes if it makes sense.
