Broker Biography
Introduction
HedgeStone is a full-service business brokerage and advisory firm serving business owners across a wide range of industries and deal sizes.
As an advisor with HedgeStone, my personal focus is on businesses valued between $500K and $10M — the segment where owners often need the most guidance and have the most at stake personally.
I bring a rare combination of credentials to every engagement — including business consulting experience at Ernst & Young and a seasoned background in real estate advisory. That means you get institutional-grade deal discipline with the personal attention of a dedicated advocate.
I specialize in working with owners navigating life transitions — retirement, career pivots, health changes, or simply the right moment to move on. Whatever your reason for selling, I'll help you exit on your terms, at the right price, with confidence.
Services Provided
