About the Company
First Choice Business Brokers Tustin is a full-service business brokerage firm helping business owners confidentially sell their businesses and qualified buyers identify acquisition opportunities.
Our team works with privately held businesses across a wide range of industries, including healthcare and professional practices, service businesses, restaurants, med spas and wellness businesses, skilled trades, construction, logistics, manufacturing, and other established companies throughout Southern California.
We assist business owners through every stage of the sale process, including business sale preparation, pricing and market positioning, confidential marketing, buyer screening and qualification, negotiations, due diligence coordination, financing support, and transaction management through closing.
Our approach is built around confidentiality, clear communication, strong negotiation, and hands-on transaction support. We understand that selling a business is often one of the most important financial and personal decisions an owner will make, and we work to protect the value, relationships, and legacy they have built.
Whether an owner is ready to sell now or simply beginning to explore their options, our goal is to provide practical guidance, professional representation, and a clear path forward.

Introduction
First Choice Business Broker based in Southern California, where I work closely with entrepreneurs across the construction, trades, and hospitality industries. My background as a classically trained chef, small business owner, and operator gives me a practical understanding of what it takes to build, grow, and eventually transition a business.
I specialize in helping owners understand the value of what they’ve built through complimentary business valuations, and I guide those who are ready through the sales process from start to finish. I also work with buyers and growing companies to identify acquisition opportunities that align with their long term goals.
I take a relationship driven approach to my work and focus on creating meaningful connections between buyers, sellers, and other professionals. I’m passionate about supporting entrepreneurs at every stage, whether they are expanding, preparing for an exit, or simply looking to better understand their position in today’s market.
