Cognizant

I am the relationship manager for a portfolio of enterprise clients and am tasked with understanding the whole scope of the financial services landscape across process, people and culture, engineering, architecture, mobile, data, analytics and the business.  

I am:
• The bridge between the consulting practices and the customer.
• The person tasked with proactively finding business problems to solve and matching them to solutions we’ve already delivered. 

Enterprise leaders come to me when they want to:
• Deliver a project faster.
• Strip out cost from a complex process.
• Offshore the bulk of a project to countries like the US, India and Romania.
• Rebuild an old application and migrate it to the cloud. 

I go to enterprise leaders when I:
• Discover a new technology (think blockchain) or strategy that I think will improve their customer value proposition.
• See opportunities for faster speed to market, better ways of thinking about agile, and new partners for them to work with.

Arq Group

Arq Group (aka Melbourne IT) is 20+ years old, has 500 staff, and is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange. I managed a team of 12 Relationship Managers who looked after SaaS clients utilizing services such as social media marketing, SEO, web development, PPC and content creation for blogs/websites.

Group Account Director Customer Success/Account Management

National Australia Bank

My team were a small group of intrapreneurs who were passionate about global online business and wanting to be thought leaders in the space.

As an Associate Director within NAB’s Global eCommerce and Advisory team, it was my role to assist overseas technology / eCommerce companies to setup in Australia. I also supported Australian Online Businesses to go overseas and be able to scale quickly. 

As well as the advisory piece it was my responsibility to help NAB partner with payment companies under an introducer, payment facilitator, bin sponsorship or ISO (Independent Sales Organisation) agreement.

Associate Director Global eCommerce & Advisory

As a Specialised Business Banking Manager I advise businesses in non-lending banking products such as receivables, payables and cash management. I also have a specialisation in dealing with eCommerce / tech and social media. I think of myself like as an intrapreneur in a large organisation looking to consult to my clients on strategies that can improve their cashflow and bring more clients to their business. This doesn't just involve banking, its often important for me to look outside of that to assist in contacts or partners who can help them grow even further. 

When looking at a business the first thing I look for is the team and why they do what they do. Once I understand the vision and the team I then look at the product or service to see how it fits into the market and where I can add value. 

As part of this role I also train my NAB colleagues on the importance of Social Media as well as rolling out the LinkedIn Instruct training to demonstrate how their network can be increased and how to identify potential opportunities that were traditionally missed.

Specialised Business Banking Manager

Working as a Transaction Banking Specialist I specialise in assisting startups and eCommerce business with all aspects of banking and finance. It has allowed me to be knowledgable in referral partnerships and large existing tech businesses that are already successful. The environment I work in lets me solve problems in my own left of centre way and to think outside the box. If there is a product that a client needs which I can't assist them with I am able to refer them to a partner who can. The main question I ask when speaking to clients is "whats your mobile strategy." Everyone has an eCommerce / Retail Strategy but most haven't launched their business in a mobile way. Even the businesses that have gone mobile have not got the ability to accept payments through their app.

Transaction Banking Specialist

In this role I was responsible for developing new business in the receivables, payables and cash management space. In this role it was important to be invovled in the tech space and regularly attend investment / ecommerce events.

Sales Consultant, Transactional

Responsible for providing advice around different types of insurance products. I dealt alot with high net wealth individuals and Senior NAB Staff who required tailored insurance options to meet their needs. The role required me to regularly speak with insurance underwriters to determine the adequate level of risk and coverage.

Founder & CEO at GPARENCY | CREF Revolutionary | Commercial Mortgage Broker | Thought Leader | Proud Father

I founded GPARENCY in November 2021 with a simple mission: to change the way CRE funding is done and create more opportunities for others. Since then, we've gained national attention for our revolutionary pricing model and reputation for closing complex deals. 

We're changing the game and empowering borrowers to cut the commissions and get the world's best closers to run their deal for a max of $11K.

Since the age of 21, I have earned a number of accolades, including:
Youngest President of any Top 10 mortgage brokerage
Crain’s youngest “Forty Under 40” honoree
Mastermind behind Meridian’s rise from $300M to $2B+
Founder and growth driver of Eastern Union to $5B

I love CRE funding and discovering new ways to give back, improve, and challenge the status quo.

Find out more about the GPARENCY difference: gparency.com

Founder & CEO

I founded GPARENCY to make GPs the true owners of their entire CRE financing process. Through radical transparency and a tech-forward process, we empower them to direct their own mortgage, access lenders directly, hire professionals by the hour, and Take it to the bank™.

My simple message to every GP is this: You don’t pay your attorney on commission. Why pay your mortgage broker? That’s the revolution catalyzed by GPARENCY. From today forward, GPs no longer need a full-service broker. We get them to the term sheet for a simple, flat fee of $5,000, at which point they can choose to deal directly with the bank, hire us to carry them forward, or take their business to any other professional. No more mysteries. No inflated commissions. Just clarity, transparency, and control.

Eastern Union

I formed Eastern Union in 2001 with Abraham Bergman, where I established the company’s record for innovation, grit, and industry-wide disruption. We aggressively integrated technology and market data into our business model; sped up the loan submission process by a factor of 10; and developed relationships with 200+ lenders.

In the process, I grew Eastern from a four-person Brooklyn office into a national, 100-person firm with offices in New York, New Jersey, and Maryland. By the time I left in late 2021, Eastern was closing roughly $5 billion in annual financing for complex, multi-state, multi-site portfolios, as well as loans for smaller, single-property transactions.

President

Meridian Capital Group

At Meridian Capital I integrated mastery of the cold call into the company’s business model, trained several large teams of callers, and led the launch of new offices nationwide. This campaign, the success of which would go on to repeat itself, accomplished unprecedented growth for the company: In the year before I joined, Meridian closed $300 million in loans. Just four years later, in my final year there, the firm had closed over $3 billion.
