Engage

Three ways to put the thread to work.

A career spent building in categories that weren't defined yet — available as board service, advisory work, and principal capital.

01_BOARD_MEMBER

Board Member

Independent and advisory board seats for mid-sized service businesses and hospitality concepts navigating scale, capital structure, or category creation.

  • Capital structure & debt-market timing
  • Category creation and brand positioning
  • Operator-grade governance, not oversight theater

02_ADVISOR

Advisor & Mentor

Hands-on advising for founders and operators — from pre-seed student ventures at Vanderbilt to multi-unit hospitality leadership teams.

  • Go-to-market for undefined categories
  • Unit economics and the path to investability
  • Building things larger than the seat you arrived in

03_INVESTOR

Investor — Principal Capital

Buying and building service businesses as a principal. Underwriting shaped by a full cycle — willing to walk away from a deal that looks good on paper.

  • AI-enabled mid-market service businesses
  • Principal, not fund — aligned capital
  • Cycle-tested underwriting discipline

If it's overlooked, structural, and worth more together than apart — let's talk.
