Intro call

20–30 minutes to understand your company, goals, cap table, and what's keeping you up at night.

Build the finance engine

Clean reporting, a usable model, clear runway, and a view of dilution and founder outcomes.

Ongoing cadence

Monthly deep dives (or weekly during a focused engagement) plus support between meetings so you're not making big calls alone.

Built by a founder/operator who's been in the room.

I've lived the cycle: starting up, surviving a short runway, going through diligence, watching transactions fall through, and ultimately getting a deal done.

My work now is to help you get out of spreadsheet chaos and into a simple finance system, model dilution so you know what each round really costs, build investor-ready financials and a credible story, and prepare for an exit long before an interested buyer reaches out.
