I LAUNCH ventures. I’m a Strategist, Impact Innovator, Thought Partner and Coach. I'm agile, both a thinker and doer, and seamlessly flow among levels to fill the gaps between vision and execution: • 30,000 feet: innovative strategy and tenacious creativity • 10,000 feet: management planning and tactical leadership • Boots on the ground: tangible, iterative action; bring it to life. -- My Super Powers: I unlock potential (in people and ideas) by harnessing the power of the two F's: FINANCE + FEELINGS. I joke that I’m a cross between BRENÉ BROWN... • Sharp, relatable (and sometimes comedic) analysis of our social psychological dynamics at play in any interaction, individually and collectively in our organizations, for the purpose of empowering, coaching, and journeying WITH you. AND SHARK TANK... • Business savvy and tenacious strategic creativity to bring entrepreneurial and financial solutions to life through innovative early-stage investment, business development, and landscape analysis. -- CORE INDUSTRIES: • Impact Investing (values-aligned investment strategy) • Social Enterprise (entrepreneurship, new initiative launch) • Catalytic Philanthropy (creative funding models for social impact) • Financial Sustainability (business modeling, development strategy) -- HOW I CAN HELP YOU: An overview of the hats I can wear to take you from idea through launch, from concept to tangibility, or from good to even better. I serve those DEPLOYING ASSETS (impact investors, foundations, family offices, etc.) and those BUILDING SOLUTIONS (start-up entrepreneurs, social enterprises, non-profit executives, visionary individuals, etc.). 1) EXECUTIVE STRATEGY COUNSEL Leadership can be lonely. With C-Suite expertise and being an innovative entrepreneurial thinker, I can be your executive sounding board and coach. 2) LAUNCH STRATEGIST Starting something new (program, initiative, venture)? I can turn that idea into action, and get the ball rolling. Now. 3) FINANCIAL IMPACT & INVESTMENT STRATEGIST Do you have capital that you want to activate toward a cause? I can help you get started or navigate the menu of creative financial structures. 4) PITCH COACH I’ve been a seed stage investor and vetted over 600 global enterprises across sectors in one year alone. I can demystify behind the curtain in investors’ and funders’ minds. -- Some of my NOTABLE VENTURES: • Currently building a community venture accelerator and funding platform in my hometown of Atlanta with an intentional focus on low-income entrepreneurs, especially single mothers. • Co-founded a $5.5 Million global impact investment portfolio with a focus on empowering underserved women--including the investment thesis, social impact thesis, global pipeline across 5 continents, virtual due diligence process, and post-investment advisory for a private foundation seeking to deploy direct private investments of up to $250,000 USD across multiple sectors and emerging markets. In one year alone, I recruited and vetted over 600 global ventures for investment consideration. This portfolio continues running today by my co-founder and makes early-stage investments across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. • Founding team and program creator for a high-profile public-private partnership between the U.S. and Japanese governments and private industry following the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake to revitalize the region hit by the devastating tsunami. This partnership and its programs continue today with high-level access on Capitol Hill, the Japanese Parliament, and among Fortune 500 companies. -- MORE ABOUT ME: I’m committed to empowering human potential, my own included. I’m a natural connector and catalyst, of people and ideas. From my own journey, I can relate to the deep satisfaction, self-confidence, and societal good that arises when you can remove the blockers (whether emotional, logistical, or financial) to being able to express the compassion that lives in your heart tangibly out in the world. Whether struggling to scale your business, tackling a need you see in your community, or aligning your financial capital with your personal values and interests, all these paths begin with caring about something enough to want to try to help. I can help you convert that feeling of CARE into effective ACTION. I thrive in navigating the ambiguity and risk (and exciting possibility) at the early stages of launching new programs, product lines, businesses, investment deals, and career/industry pivots. With my deep compassion for helping others (Enneagram #2) and tenacious strategic creativity, I want to journey with you to catalyze your ideas and impact in the world. -- MY VALUES: My relationships with clients are like all relationships I cherish in my personal life, built on trust. I value integrity, authenticity, transparency, deep listening, and self-awareness. If I’m not the right person to help you, I’ll do my best to point you elsewhere.Venture Capital Consulting

I am an investment banking/private equity specialist and commercial real estate developer with a proven track record for sourcing, analyzing, negotiating, structuring, and closing deals across a wide variety of asset classes and circumstances for myself and my clients. I also teach finance as a college professor. Happy clients value my ability to balance a thorough focus on important analytical details with the bigger picture and overall strategy for any given investment opportunity. Time is not a friend for any given deal, which is why my proven system for transaction- and time-management is crucial in the delivery of my services. I currently help clients identify, approach, evaluate, and pursue investments across a variety of industry categories, including operating businesses in almost any sector as well as commercial real estate. Through Vantage Financial, I am involved in M&A processes for the firm's clients and for the firm's own account. Through 31 North Capital Partners, Premier Hotel and KW Commercial, I pursue commercial real estate investments, development and brokerage for my own account and for clients. Finally, I teach lower- and upper-level finance courses at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College. In this way, my daily life is steeped in finance, and my goal is to bring all of the resulting insights, skills, industry knowledge, and talent that I have to directly advance and achieve your business objectives. My other professional experiences include deal originations for Prudential Global Investment Management (formerly known as Prudential Mortgage Capital Company); advisor and Chief Compliance Officer for 31 North Wealth Management; content writing and tutoring for Bloomberg's CFA test-preparation product, and various ad-hoc private equity consulting engagements. I am a CFA® charterholder. The CFA designation is globally recognized and attests to a charterholder’s success in a rigorous and comprehensive study program in the field of finance, including areas such as private equity, M&A, investment management, and alternative investments like commercial real estate. My undergraduate degrees includes two separate Bachelor's of Business Adminstration, one in finance and one in real estate, both from the University of Georgia. My master's degree includes a Master of Science in Finance from Georgetown University. I am a licensed real estate broker and I am actively involved in my community, including serving on the Tifton Financial Literacy Board which is a non-profit effort to improve the financial health of my local town. Transaction highlights: - More than $400 million in commercial real estate debt closings across all property types in the United States as an associate at Prudential. The largest of these was a $150 million acquisition financing package for an apartment complex located near UCLA. - More than $100 million in direct development or acquisition experience for my and/or my investors' own accounts, including retail, office, hotels, self-storage and raw land development. - Currently negotiating more than $150 million across M&A and commercial real estate financing requests at Vantage Financial, and approximately $30 million in directly owned deals through 31 North and Premier Hotel Corporation. My dual roles in the private sector and academic realm (as a part-time finance instructor) provide both an intellectual and information edge as it relates to the absolute latest trends in finance across all sectors. I am known by my previous employers, clients and investors for: - Clear, thorough, and regular communication with the added ability to translate complex finance topics into easily-understood explanations and frameworks. - Deep expertise in highly functional areas in corporate finance, including positioning companies for acquisitions or for being acquired; performing analysis and due diligence on targets or proposed investments of any size, type or geography; and integrating feedback from operations, marketing and accounting into executive decision-making related to corporate finance. - I live in the southern half of the State of Georgia, so I have a southern accent! In all seriousness, I really channel my personal values of friendliness, fairness, and hospitality into all of my professional engagements. Though I am a very, very hardworking person, I believe where (and how) I was raised helps balance out my drive and ambitions in a positive way. Please feel free to take a look at my Upwork portfolio area, my LinkedIn, and my resume as additional areas of reference. Do not hesitate to reach out with any questions, and thank you in advance for your consideration!Venture Capital Consulting
