CEOs/Business Owners face challenges when it comes to growth or selling all or part of their companies. Often, the decisions they make alone are the hardest decisions to make. At Diamond Capital Advisors, I help CEOs/Business Owners through the difficult processes of selling their companies, raising equity/debt, making new acquisitions or even finding out what their company is worth. I help them make the right decisions for their future. I prepared for this opportunity for three decades, having traveled a path that relied on many partners. My 30-year career as an investment banker, public broadcasting executive, award-winning news producer and startup founder provides a solid foundation from the bumps and bruises I’ve encountered along the way. There were pivotal moments in my career, including when as CEO of North Texas Public Broadcasting, I led a talented production team that won the station numerous awards, including a national Emmy and a George Foster Peabody. As founder of the Store of Knowledge, a retail learning-store chain, I navigated the company from startup to large-scale operation. Always—I understood that success relied on seeking out help when needed to navigate through difficult processes.A passion for public service and a commitment to helping others progress faster are catalysts for helping CEOs/Business Owners make the right decisions with the future of their companies.
