Interests: When evaluating a business for investment, acquisition, or advisory purposes, we look for strong financial performance with consistent revenue and profit growth, healthy profit margins, positive cash flow, and manageable debt levels.

Businesses we favour typically demonstrate these attributes, while those lacking in these areas are less appealing but our advisory team can help work on these aspects. We will not charge any upfront fee from the businesses. We will charge a success fee from the businesses.
Background: I am a director at a professional services firm specializing in areas such as transaction advisory services. Our expertise lies in providing M&A advice and strategic guidance to help businesses navigate complex and critical financial transactions. With a diverse background in finance and business, I am committed to delivering tailored solutions that drive success and value for our clients.
