Having 25 years of experience in the financial services industry provides a broad perspective on the capital markets. Having been fortunate to work with some truly gifted and very hard working investors in my career, I seek to remember the lessons learned every day. In the course of raising over $20 billion for various firms, my role has been to assist clients in identifying suitable strategies and investments, as well as assisting emerging asset managers grow assets. Having built six separate multi-billion dollar investment management organizations, I enjoy feeling proud in seeing a business take shape,evolving into an institutional-quality organization with a culture and style all its own. The ability to withstand up & down markets,and add value over the course of time and thrive going forward all speak to an organization's core strength and sustainability. I want to look back 10 years from now, enjoy seeing several other mutli-billion dollar businesses that I've helped develop, by investing my capital my energy and experience, and assisted them in generating robust returns and satisfaction for their clients.Specialties: alternative assets, business development, client service, collateral sales materials, corporate finance, creative advertising & marketing, 40-act funds, Fund-of-funds, investment banking, investor relations, instututional sales, marketing, public relations, private equity, sales management & training, strategic planning, traning and venture capital are among the areas where I have excelled in my career.I also am very savvy on both compliance and operational due diligence having analyzed thousands of manager presentations and performance results.
