Bio

I will try not to be long winded here but here are the quick stats:

I am a partner at Canon Capital Partners LLC, a Bethesda, MD. based financial and strategic advisory services firm.

Prior to Canon, I co-founded Brookmill Capital Partners, a Toronto-based management consulting and financial advisory firm, servicing firms in construction, real estate, manufacturing and service sectors. My main responsibilities included forming and managing partnerships, leading strategic advisory engagements, as well as capital-raising deal support and execution. Also during that time, I served as the President of TwoFiveBlue Inc; a US based consulting services firm established to provide strategic and technological advice to companies in various industries including: media, financial services and business advisory.

Prior to Brookmill, I served as an analyst at Carthage Venture Partners, now The Carthage Group, a New York City venture capital / private equity firm focused on investing in suppliers, partners and divestitures of Fortune 500 companies. I provided strategic support to the fund partners in the origination, analysis, structuring and management of investment opportunities. I was also responsible for producing industry reports on emerging technologies – and getting lots of coffee for the partners.

I was educated at Columbia University in New York City, and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science.

In summary, I am a serial entrepreneur, an avid reader (could be reading 4 books at any one time), aspiring golfer and world traveler, budding philanthropist, closet tree hugger, dangerous Risk (board game) player, a huge Jerry Rice fan (would love to meet him one day), a night owl, and a happy parent.
