Co Founder, Residential Building Construction
Individual Buyer in Toronto, Canada
Interests:
I look for businesses that are already profitable with a clear operational core, ideally with $150K–$500K in owner earnings and systems or teams in place. I am particularly drawn to:
Service-based or trade-aligned businesses (for example, restoration, tile, stone, carpet, property refresh), digital or UX/CRO agencies with recurring revenue, small teams, and under-optimized sales/marketing funnels and companies with untapped growth potential via branding, quoting automation, or digital lead generation. I tend to avoid highly seasonal businesses with unpredictable cash flow, inventory-heavy retail models with no service layer, ventures with no clear team or that are solely founder-run without SOPs. My background is in digital experience design and business development, so I am looking for businesses where I can layer in process, automation, and customer experience improvements to drive fast ROI and long-term growth.
Background: I am a Toronto-based business operator and entrepreneur currently leading a successful property services company and actively exploring strategic acquisitions in the construction and materials sector. I am a serious and well-aligned buyer.

We successfully expanded into the film and television industry, diversifying our revenue streams.
