I am a Denver native who has 20 years experience in all levels of small business, including management, marketing, and ownership. After helping to grow two family owned businesses, a production company and a neighborhood bar & grill, I moved into a position at Transworld to help others achieve their goals of buying or selling a small business.

I have spent the last 5+ years helping entrepreneurs buy and sell business under $20M in enterprise value. Prior to joining Transworld Business Advisors, I worked in several family-owned businesses allowing me to understand the unique joys and challenges facing entrepreneurs every day. During this time, I realized there was a need for investment banking level services for M&A in the lower middle market and decided to become a business broker. Along with my credentials as a CM&AA and CEPA, I also have a BA in Business Finance and am fluent in Spanish, having lived in Spain for over a decade. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and our dog Aspen, road & mountain biking, playing soccer, skiing and traveling.

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. Our team has guided hundreds of business owners through the process of valuation, preparation, and sale with clarity and confidence.

Being involved in business has always been a passion of mine. I began working at the age of 15 for many of my family's small businesses and have been apart of and helped grow many other small businesses. Shortly after graduating from Colorado State University with a business and economics degree I started my own small business. I joined Transworld Business Advisors of Colorado in order to work with and learn from other small business owners while helping them through situations I can relate to.
