Broker Biography

Introduction

Hi, I’m Ashkun.

I’m a business broker and financial operator with firsthand experience scaling and selling companies from the inside. Before moving into brokerage, I spent two decades as a finance and operations executive across media, tech, and mission-driven ventures. That includes leading the finance and ops team of a $160 million division at CBS and helping spin out an independent startup from that unit.

Today, I work with small business owners who are ready to move on, whether they’re planning to retire, relocate, or simply take a step back from the day-to-day. I offer a full-service approach to valuation, packaging, and deal execution, shaped by my own experience on both sides of the table.

I specialize in Automotive (with a 30 year background of family business experience), Food & Bev, Retail, Fitness/Wellness, and other Personal Services. I’m also a licensed real estate agent, small business owner, investor, and active consultant for large nonprofits and organizations with a social mission.

My focus is on honest pricing, clear storytelling, and a process that respects the time, risk, and hard work that went into building your business. If you're starting to explore your options, I’d be glad to walk you through what's possible.

I hold a B.S. in Managerial Economics from UC Davis and an MBA from the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business.
