Growth can be fast, focused, and under control.
I work with founders and leadership teams to scale decisively—while staying clear, fast, and in control.

What I Bring
I step in when the stakes are high, the path is unclear, or the team is at capacity. My work blends sharp analysis with grounded execution—clarity on capital strategy, planning, and how to move fast without losing your footing.

Why Clients Trust Me
I’ve spent 25+ years helping leadership teams navigate growth, investment, and reinvention. My background spans:

• Strategy consulting with Mitchell Madison Group

• Venture investing and strategic development at Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase

• Private equity investing and acquisition execution as a Search Funder

• Operating experience in healthcare, tech, education, finance, and consumer businesses

I hold an MBA in finance and marketing from Kellogg at Northwestern, and a BA in economics and French from Trinity College (with honors).

What clients value most isn’t just the model or the plan—it’s the ability to see the whole picture, name what matters, and move forward without second-guessing.

Who I Work Best With
I work best with ambitious, founder-led companies that value clarity, momentum, and collaboration. If you’re sitting on capital, hitting growth ceilings, or trying to scale without compromising the business—this is when my work has the most impact.

Why I Do This Work
Because I love solving complex problems, making complex choices clear, and helping good companies get sharper as they grow.
