Strategic CFO | Corporate Development & M&A Leader | $1B+ in Capital Markets & M&A Transactions | Board Advisor
Strategic finance executive with public company CFO experience and a track record of executing over $1 billion in M&A, capital markets and strategic transactions, including a $230 million IPO and a $585 million company exit. My background spans investment banking, equity research, corporate finance and corporate development, giving me a rare, full-picture view of how capital allocation and M&A strategy actually drive enterprise value. Throughout my career I've built and led finance, strategy and corporate development functions at companies spanning high-growth technology, media and consumer platforms, including realtor.com (a division of News Corp), TV Guide (sold to CBS) and, most recently, NESN (part of Fenway Sports Group), where I'm deeply exploring how AI can yield measurable results across the business. I execute end to end, from strategy ideation through business development outreach, deal negotiation, close and post-merger integration. I regularly engage with boards and investors on strategy, capital allocation and long-term value creation, work I approach with the same rigor whether the audience is a public company board, a private equity sponsor or a management team. I'm energized by financial leadership roles where deal-making, capital markets and strategy drive real outcomes, whether as a CFO or in a Chief Strategy Officer, Head of Corporate Development or board capacity. Always glad to connect and share more about my background.
