Before transitioning into business brokerage and M&A, I spent over a decade as the owner and operator of three health clubs in the Denver Metro Area, two of which I launched from the ground up, and one I acquired. Managing dozens of employees and contractors, overseeing complex leases and build-outs, and navigating a wide range of operational challenges taught me invaluable lessons along the way. In 2017, I was ready for a new chapter and engaged Transworld Business Advisors of Colorado to help facilitate the sale of my business. Following the successful transaction, I joined the Transworld team as a business broker, a role that felt like a natural progression. In 2022, I became an equity Partner in our Colorado office. If you're considering selling your business, I’d be happy to explore its value and what a tailored exit strategy could look like.
