I am an advisor, facilitator and coach. I help business owners get what they want from their business. I have worked for business owners all my life. My father and all four of my grandparents were entrepreneurs. Over the past 25 years, I have worked with hundreds of entrepreneurs, owners and their leadership teams to achieve some of their most important objectives and solve some of their biggest problems. I started my career as a credit analyst at a large national bank. After graduating from business school, I became an advisor and investment banker with a focus on helping growing family-owned and privately held companies acquire other businesses and raise capital. I became an EOS implementer when I realized many of my best clients were running on EOS. I started my advisory practice in 2018. In addition to teaching EOS to leadership teams, I teach the Value Acceleration Methodology to owners – a process modernized by the Exit Planning Institute. I am a problem solver and connector. Please let me know if there is ever anything that I can do for you.

I have conducted market research and polling projects at agencies in Toronto, DC, NYC, and Pittsburgh for over two decades. I’ve worked with clients large and small, corporate and not-for-profit, across a wide range of industries and sectors, including politics. At different times I have focused more in some areas than others—higher education, healthcare and pharmaceutical, consumer products, financial, and travel and tourism—but the common threads have been the development of actionable insights to inform communications campaigns and strategy and research to measure the market potential of products and programs.
