Search Fund Expert | From Thesis to Close | Stanford GSB
I help aspiring entrepreneurs successfully navigate the Search Fund and ETA journey — from refining your thesis and sourcing high-quality deals to raising capital, running diligence, and closing with confidence. Whether you're pursuing a traditional or self-funded path, I coach searchers on how to evaluate businesses, craft investor-ready materials, and execute like an operator-in-waiting. As the Founder of Zeus Global, I’ve lived the path firsthand — launching a PE platform, sourcing proprietary deals, and leading end-to-end M&A processes across vertical SaaS and tech-enabled services. I’ve raised capital from family offices, PE firms, and strategic partners while managing every stage of the transaction, including modeling, legal structuring, and post-close value creation. My earlier experience includes investing roles at LeapFrog Investments, the Africa Finance Corporation, and a $5B family office. I hold an MBA from Stanford GSB. I’ve coached first-time searchers, career switchers, and non-traditional candidates — with a particular focus on helping them develop conviction, tell a differentiated story, and build trust with capital partners.
