I am a real estate agent, business broker and attorney. My aim is to be a comprehensive resource for those who buy, sell and operate small businesses and franchises. My law practice, real estate agent and business brokerage services focus on commercial real estate, franchising and general business matters (including joint ventures and equity participation models). I am a graduate of Columbia University in New York and the University of Virginia School of Law. My career began in commercial real estate, and has evolved to include corporate, franchise, and private mergers and acquisitions (“M & A”). My transaction experience includes deals in a range of different industries, including quick service restaurants, spa centers, professional sign centers, commercial cleaning services, travel agencies, and medical facilities. As a real estate agent and business broker, I bring very practical knowledge of deal structure, due diligence, and deal flow. I am passionate about being a resource for entrepreneurs who want to create wealth and legacy through real estate and business ownership.

I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia and went to Mercer University of Atlanta and DeKalb Technical College. My training and background in Information Technology involved working in software development, project management, system support, and analysis. I developed solid technical and business skills that are useful to me as a Business Broker.

I have an affinity for sales transactions that produce a mutually beneficial outcome.  And became a Business Broker, in large part, because I find it rewarding to help people, whether it is facilitating the sale of a business a Seller has worked hard to build or its being an integral part of helping a Buyer to realize their dream of owning their own business.

I have experienced a solid track record of successful business sales across multiple industries and enjoy bringing value to the partnership with my clients on both the sell and buy side.   

At RamBizGroup, LLC we provide the business community with highly professional acquisition, valuation and exit strategy solutions.

I provide professional, high quality service and assistance with acquisition, valuation, and exit strategy solutions. With my experience managing transaction details from offer to close, I ensure the best value for my clients, and I make the process as painless as possible.
