From an early age, I was drawn to improving processes and questioning the status quo. Whether on the sports field or in the classroom, I challenged the norm, believing that innovation comes from breaking the mold. In my professional journey, I started as a Civil Engineer but shifted toward business management. Frustrated by the slow pace of improvement, I left my Engineering job to pursue a business opportunity and turn around a struggling contracting business.

 

After successfully revitalizing this business, I transitioned into management consulting, only to face a sudden personal tragedy with my father's passing. To save our family's businesses from financial ruin, my wife and I invested our home equity and embarked on a challenging journey to revive these ventures. This period taught me invaluable lessons in entrepreneurship and resilience.

 

By the age of 31, I had navigated near insolvency, orchestrated turnarounds, and sold our family businesses. Seeking a break from the rollercoaster of entrepreneurship, I secured a stable job in management consulting. However, my instinct for challenging convention resurfaced, leading me to launch my boutique consulting business, Syntropy Group.

 

Despite my lack of sales experience, I found a unique ability to connect with business owners, fostering enduring and trusting relationships. Over a decade of work with Syntropy Group, I helped numerous clients achieve remarkable growth.

 

As I delved into interim leadership roles, I found my true calling. Hands-on transformation, mentoring, and guiding teams became immensely fulfilling. Advising started to feel like a chore, as I yearned to lead by example.

 

Now, in the middle of my career, armed with experience, knowledge, and capital, I am on a mission to acquire an existing business. I aim to provide business owners an exit strategy while building upon their life's work. I'm deeply grateful for my journey, and I'm excited about the next chapter.
