Experienced Investor & Business Buyer | Goldman Sachs, Citadel, Echo Street
I'm an investor with 10 years of experience across hedge funds, growth equity and investment banking. I have more recently spent the last 2 years in the ETA world and been under LOI on 3 businesses including currently in process of closing a 9 location brick and mortar platform. I can discuss all aspects of the ETA process including sourcing, modelling, due diligence and raising money. Previously, I spent the last 10 years in investment banking (Goldman Sachs) and investing (Citadel and Echo Street) focusing on both public equities and private growth equity investments. I graduated first class honors from Queen's University and held multiple internships throughout college in finance including at Goldman Sachs in my junior summer where I received a full time offer.
