Broker Biography
Introduction
With over 25 years of leadership experience in the pharmaceutical industry and as a current small business owner, I bring a unique combination of analytical expertise, operational insight, and real-world entrepreneurial understanding to business brokerage.
My career began as a scientist, where I became the youngest Team Leader at OSG Norwich Pharmaceuticals. I later advanced into roles as Alternate Laboratory Supervisor, Analytical Project Manager, and Internal Auditor. In these positions, I successfully led complex, multi-million dollar projects across the United States as well as internationally in New Zealand and Barcelona. These experiences strengthened my ability to analyze businesses thoroughly, manage large projects, and deliver results under pressure.
After buying and operating my own small salon business, I gained firsthand appreciation for the challenges, rewards, and complexities that business owners face every day. That experience was the catalyst that led me into business brokerage — I became passionate about helping other owners navigate their own transitions with greater confidence and success.
Today, I proudly serve business owners across Central North Carolina, including the Charlotte and Lake Norman regions. My primary focus is helping owners who are considering exiting or retiring — whether that transition is happening now or planned for the future. I specialize in service-based businesses generating between $1M and $10M in annual revenue, though I’m always happy to speak with any business owner to explore how I can help or refer them to the right professional in my network.
As a natural people connector, I approach every engagement with care, integrity, and clear communication. I provide confidential business sales, professional valuations, exit planning guidance, deal structuring support, and full project management throughout the sale process. My goal is to handle the heavy lifting so you can continue focusing on running your business with minimal disruption.
Whether you’re ready to explore selling your business or just want to understand your options, I offer a thoughtful, no-pressure conversation to help you move forward.
I look forward to connecting with fellow entrepreneurs in Central North Carolina and supporting successful, rewarding business transitions.
