I've been on your side of the table.
Before I became a broker, I owned a construction company for five years. I made payroll, managed crews, chased bids, and navigated the grind that every business owner knows. I've also managed regional operations for LKQ Corporation — a publicly traded, Fortune-level enterprise in the automotive parts and salvage industry — where I learned how sophisticated buyers think, what they look for, and how deals get done at the highest level.
That combination — owner experience plus corporate operations plus nearly a decade in real estate — is rare in this business. It means when you sit across from me, you're not talking to someone who read about your world in a textbook. You're talking to someone who's lived it.
What I Do Differently
There's no shortage of business brokers. Here's what separates my approach:
One advisor, start to finish. You work directly with me — not an assistant, not a rotating team. I write your valuation, market your business, field buyer calls, and negotiate your deal personally.
Institutional-grade valuations. I don't estimate your value — I build a defensible, data-driven analysis rooted in real market comparables and current buyer appetite. That number holds up through negotiation and due diligence.
Capital Migration Strategy. Through the Hedgestone Global Network, I identify where investment capital is actively moving and position your business in front of it. Your ideal buyer may be in Dallas, Charleston, or Columbus. I find them.
Real estate, handled. Licensed since 2016 in both residential and commercial real estate, I manage the property component of business transactions that most brokers hand off. Cleaner process. Fewer moving parts. Better outcomes.
Absolute confidentiality. Your employees, customers, and competitors don't need to know you're exploring a sale. Every listing is airtight until you say otherwise.
Zero upfront fees. I don't get paid until you do. Full alignment from day one.

Not ready yet? That's fine.
The best time to know your business's value is before you need to sell it. A free, confidential valuation costs you nothing — and changes how you think about every decision you make going forward.
Wherever you are in the process, the first conversation is always free.
