About me
An engineer and former consultant, committed to becoming a business owner.
An engineer by training, I have worked in structural analysis, industrial equipment design and project management. After earning an MBA at McGill, I spent two years advising manufacturing companies on strategy, operations and project management.
My comfort with technology, combined with my experience improving processes, has helped me find better ways of working in every environment I’ve been part of.
I also enjoy making things. From CNC woodworking to 3D printing, I design and build my own parts, from the initial idea to the finished piece.
Today, I want to put that experience to work in a business I will lead myself.
My approach
A serious, confidential process.
We start with a coffee, no strings attached. I’d like to hear your story, how you see your industry, what worked and what you would do differently. If succession is on your mind, we discuss it at your pace, in confidence. A confidentiality agreement can be signed before any sensitive information is shared. If our expectations align, we look at the next steps of a takeover together.
- Full time
- I am focused full time on finding the right business and ensuring a smooth handover. This is neither a side project nor a casual exploration.
- Financing
- My bank has confirmed my liquidity and acquisition capacity. A comfort letter is available on request.
- Confidentiality
- Every conversation remains confidential. We can sign a non-disclosure agreement from the first contact.
My commitment
Preserving what you’ve built. Planning the next chapter together.
Continuity
- Protect the people, relationships and know-how behind the business.
- Preserve the company’s identity, culture and local presence.
- Minimize disruption for employees, customers and suppliers.
A handover shaped together
- Plan for a 6–12-month transition, based on your preferences and the needs of the business.
- Transfer key relationships, knowledge and operating routines.
- Discuss a gradual exit, seller financing or a phased acquisition, depending on your goals.
Long-term ownership
- Lead the company personally as a full-time owner-operator.
- Invest selectively in people, equipment and systems.
- Build on the company’s existing strengths and the legacy you’ve created.
