I worked in M&A advisory under an award-winning business broker at JRC Advisors, where I handled valuation, due diligence, and deal research on the sell side everyday. I bring real transactional experience and youthful intent to every business engagement. I'm also very good at sales! What I do for clients: - Business Valuation — SDE, EBITDA multiples, asset-based, and income-approach models tailored to your industry and deal size - Buy-Side & Sell-Side Due Diligence — financial statement analysis, risk flagging, quality of earnings, and deal memos that help you close or walk away with confidence - M&A Research & Target Sourcing — identifying acquisition targets, comparable sales data, and market positioning - AI-Powered Business Analysis — I use automation to compress research timelines and deliver sharper insights faster than traditional analysts - Financial Consulting for Banks & Brokers — pitch decks, CIMs, buyer/seller calls, and advisory support I've worked with clients across financial services, banking, and SME consulting. My focus is precision and speed — you get work that's deal-ready, not draft-ready. Who I work best with: business brokers, private equity scouts, entrepreneurs evaluating acquisitions, lenders underwriting deals, and financial consulting firms needing overflow capacity. Let's talk about your deal.
