Broker Biography
Introduction
I am a Business Broker with Transworld Business Advisors of Schaumburg, where my focus is on helping owners, buyers, and professional advisors navigate the complex process of business sales and acquisitions. With more than a decade of experience working directly with CPAs, advisory firms, and business owners, I bring a unique perspective that combines financial expertise with real-world deal execution. My background in payroll, PEO, and advisory partnerships has allowed me to develop a strong understanding of the challenges business owners face when preparing for transition.
At Transworld, I work with companies across a wide range of industries, including professional services, healthcare practices, trades and specialty contractors, manufacturing, hospitality, and e-commerce. I am committed to delivering results by listening to each client’s goals, preparing detailed valuations, positioning businesses effectively in the marketplace, and structuring transactions that create win-win outcomes.
What differentiates my approach is the emphasis on collaboration and continuity. I often partner with CPAs, attorneys, and financial advisors to support their clients, offering solutions that cover valuation readiness, exit planning, SBA financing, and creative deal structures such as seller financing or sell-and-stay models. Whether the goal is to sell a company, acquire a new one, or prepare for succession, I serve as a trusted resource who brings confidentiality, professionalism, and market insight to the table.
If you are considering selling your business, exploring an acquisition, or planning for the future, I welcome the opportunity to discuss how Transworld and I can help you achieve your objectives.
Services Provided
At Transworld Business Advisors of Schaumburg, I provide confidential business brokerage and advisory services for entrepreneurs, business owners, and investors. My work centers on helping owners prepare their companies for sale, conducting market-based valuations, and guiding them through every step of the transaction process. I represent sellers in achieving a smooth and profitable exit, while also assisting buyers in identifying opportunities that align with their goals. In addition to traditional sales, I advise on mergers and acquisitions, franchise resales, and succession planning. My services extend to business owners who may be 12-24 months away from transition, providing strategies to maximize value and ensure continuity. I also work closely with CPAs, attorneys, wealth managers, and other advisors to deliver holistic solutions for their clients at critical transition points. Every engagement is managed with the highest level of confidentiality, integrity, and professionalism.
