I am interested in helping business owners and their teams as their strategic Financial Advisor, Valuation Analyst, CFO, Strategic Financial Consultant, M&A advisor, etc. In addition to 16 years in investment banking and 11 years as a turnaround CEO, I have 10+ years of consulting experience (and references) in the Bay area, where I have gained valuable insight and experience working with companies and investors involving many different industries. I started on Wall St. at age 22, and am years from retirement and yet find myself with over 40 years of finance experience.I have been consulting to Bay area company owners in eCommerce, Health & Wellness, Entertainment, Specialty Food, Technology, SaaS, Real Estate, and Cannabis. I typically get involved 3-5 years before an exit. I provide financial expertise on a part-time basis, as needed, for a very competitive price as I work from my home office.Would it help to understood how banks and investors allocate funds and make their money? Want to optimize your business's finances? Value and benchmark your business in anticipation of an exit?I assist with deal structure, valuation reports, business plans, private placement memoranda, financial projections, strategy, due diligence, supply chain financing, SBA loans, bank lenders. I work with business owners, lenders, and investors. I can complement your team of accounting, tax, and legal advisers and help optimize your borrowing costs, capital structure, portfolio, and M&A needs.My goal is to bring my JP Morgan training and expertise in corporate finance to smaller businesses and their owners. I spent 16 years in international investment banking, and then turned a failing company around and ran it for 11 years. In addition to JP Morgan and CSFB investment banking experience, I have turned-around, started and exited multiple businesses.Having been a business owner I am not a typical investment banker. I know what it is to have to make payroll every month. I think this differentiates me as an entrepreneur and as an advisor. I study and follow finance every day. I create my own financial models from scratch. And, I have resources for large projects, but I don't get briefed by subordinates on my client's finances, I study, analyze and do their financial projections myself.I also take great pride in my integrity, honesty, and references as a Trusted Advisor, feel free to ask.

Corporate Finance SpecialistCapital Advisory, Inc. Apr 2007 - PresentI advise business owners on optimizing financial strategy, valuations, and M&A. I help on anything international, having worked and traveled in over 40 countries, and speak fluent French.I am industry-agnostic, and currently have Bay area clients in the areas of eCommerce, Health & Wellness, Entertainment, Specialty Food, Technology, and Cannabis. I have advised on a worldwide licensing agreement with a luxury brand, SBA loans, phantom shares, Vendor Financing, bank lines, cost and access to raising equity capital vs debt. I spent a year as SVP Corporate Finance for a Cannabis start-up in CO, and worked on a $20m private placement. It was never launched due to audit problems, but provided me fascinating insight into how the SEC and financial institutions view Cannabis.I look for the win-win, and only formulate deals based on honesty, transparency, and willing buyer and seller. I know how to pitch, but I am also a securities professional and conscious of the legal risks to business owners of over-zealous representations.I usually bill monthly, and quote work by the project, based on an hourly rate and incentives. I do not accept success-fee-only work.While an investment banker I was responsible for structuring and signing off on over 500 transactions, including a $1 billion financing for Euro Disney; an IPO for a subsidiary of the Elders group in Australia listed on three stock exchanges (Hong Kong, London and Melbourne); Exchangeable Preference Shares for Jardine Matheson in Hong Kong; an issue of Restructured Perpetual Floating Rate Notes for Roquette Frères in France; and the largest (at that time) international secondary offering of shares ever, for Philips N.V. of the Netherlands. I started my career in municipal bonds and worked on transactions of over $4bn, including: public power stations in Louisiana and Georgia, mortgages in Montana, Wyoming and Florida, hospitals in Nevada and California, highways in Montana, airports in Atlanta and Dayton.

Founder & CeoHttps://Marinmedicinalcannabis.Com/ Dec 2015 - Jul 2018In December 2015, I founded Marin Medicinal Cannabis (MMC). As the name implies, I wanted to create a medical cannabis (delivery) service based in Marin County, CA. In our two 2 years, we have signed up more than 1,000 Members of MMC, and are proud of the work we are doing to help our patients complement or replace pharmaceutical treatments with this homeopathic medicine. We have many Members seeking relief from chronic pain, insomnia, arthritis, anxiety, depression, and other common conditions. In some cases, they are seeking temporary relief, for example after surgery or injury. A certain number of our patients are using this natural medicine to replace (or reduce) the use of opioid-based pharmaceuticals. Many of our patients buy only products that are non-psychoactive, sticking to CBD-rich products. Some older patients consider that CBD makes them feel younger.We also have patients in treatment for much more serious conditions. Examples are certain tumors and cancers, Multiple Sclerosis, Epilepsy, Diabetes, Fibromyalgia, as well as a number of rare conditions. In all cases, CBD offers patients the strongest anti-inflammatory we have every discovered, a substance that is soothing and calming, NOT pyschoactive, and seems to be a potent antioxidant, while having a significant impact on healing, correcting immunodeficiencies, reducing pain, removing allergies, and similar. Our CBD is from green-grower certified producers in California. Beware of imported products, often from industrial hemp, and industrially processed.Unfortunately, we were unable to get licensed when the laws changed, and ceased business in early 2018.
