(Licensed Business Broker & Real Estate Broker) 25+ years of business experience in deal making, negotiations, marketing, financing, operations and closing deals. After leading several multi-million dollar deals facilitating sales development, executive management, negotiations, deal making, and pricing in the corporate world I brought those foundational skills to supporting my business brokerage practice focused on small business owners in my personal community. I have owned multiple businesses in: Video Casino-Gaming, Education, Real Estate, Business Consulting and Agriculture. My most successful business I took a company from servicing just 50 small business owners to servicing over 450 small business owners in the video gaming industry. This business was merged with a company that is now public on the NYSE. I personally grew up in a family of small business owners that have taught me that the owner does it all in the time of need. From sweeping the floor, to writing the payroll checks, to being a shoulder to cry on when employees are having a bad day. You will find that I am well rounded, and a complex problem solver regardless of the problem that arise. There is always a way to get something done! I am a active member of my community with a very large business network in Illinois/Missouri. I understand my clients as I have been in their shoes of the hard work and dedication it takes to build a business and the feelings that come after selling your business. I will be a trusted shoulder all the way as that is my commitment to anyone I serve!
