About Us

Founder-led businesses are often guided by few executives with limited resources and it is incumbent upon a financial partner to possess more than just capital. These growing, yet resource-constrained companies need a financial partner that can adapt to their ever-changing and competitive environment. These lower middle market companies seek a partner who brings a diverse and valuable Perspective. We are entrepreneurs ourselves who have taken the same leap of faith risks to start companies.

Today’s entrepreneur needs a partner that understands what it takes to operate under institutional governance and provide the requisite strategic perspective to help their young and growing business scale to the next level.
