I'm the Founder of Aureus Advantage, a transformation partner for wealth firms navigating M&A, platform evolution, and strategic growth. We bring the rare combination of real-world operating experience and actionable strategy, because building the future of wealth requires more than playbooks. It requires lived insight and experience. I also serve as a Venture Partner at Thicket Ventures, where I help early-stage wealthtech founders refine strategy, secure partnerships, and scale innovations that are reshaping financial services. 💼 My Experience I’ve built, led and scaled multi-billion-dollar wealth firms, built enterprise platforms, and executed over 60 M&A transactions. I’ve worked across the industry, from product strategy at BlackRock and Barclays to platform transformation and integration leadership at Focus Financial Partners. As Chief Experience Officer at Connectus Wealth (Focus Financial Partners global corporate wealth platform) I launched and integrated a global wealth platform and built from zero to $13 billion AUM in under three years. What I Do Today Aureus Advantage: Advising PE-backed and independent wealth firms on M&A strategy, integration, platform scalability, and organic growth. Thicket Ventures: Supporting wealthtech founders and institutional LPs with go-to-market strategy, product design, and capital alignment. Industry Voice: Frequent keynote speaker and panelist on M&A, platform and industry evolution and innovation in wealth management. Who I Work With PE & Wealth Firms: If you’re preparing for a transaction, managing post-deal complexity, or scaling a platform, Aureus provides strategic and operational support to move faster and smarter. Wealthtech Founders: I help bridge the gap between your innovation and industry adoption combining venture insight with operator experience. Event Hosts & Organizers: I bring energy, insight, and tactical frameworks to stages across the wealth and fintech landscape backed by lived experience and 60+ M&A deals. Let’s Connect My work is about transformation with strategy that’s grounded in reality, not theory. If you’re building the next chapter of your firm or reimagining what’s possible in wealth, I’d love to connect. Let’s build what’s next, together.
