About Me
I’m a Principal Broker, Partner of AMD Custom Business Brokers, based in Rochester, New York. I’ve spent my career helping business owners, investors, and entrepreneurs achieve successful exits, acquisitions, and long-term financial growth.
My professional background spans real estate investment, commercial brokerage, business acquisitions, and private lending. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve built a diversified portfolio of companies and assets under the
Custom Family of Companies, including:
AMD Custom Business Brokers – Business sales, mergers, acquisitions, and valuations
Coldwell Banker Custom Realty – Residential real estate sales and investments
Coldwell Banker Commercial Custom Realty – Commercial and industrial brokerage
Custom Realty Management – Full-service property management for multifamily and commercial properties
Across these organizations, I’ve developed a reputation for strategic dealmaking, creative financing, and disciplined execution. I’ve personally bought, sold, and managed dozens of businesses and real estate assets, giving me the practical insight to understand both the operational and emotional sides of selling or buying a business.
At AMD, we specialize in Main Street and lower to middle-market transactions, typically representing businesses with revenues between $500K and $10M across industries such as manufacturing, service, retail, construction, distribution, and hospitality. Whether representing a family-owned business or a private equity-backed buyer, I take pride in creating a structured, transparent process that gets deals to the finish line.
Our approach is hands-on and confidential. We manage every stage of the process, from valuation and preparation to marketing, negotiations, due diligence, and closing. We work closely with accountants, attorneys, and lenders to ensure every client is protected and every opportunity maximized.
In addition to brokerage, I’m an active real estate investor and private lender, with experience structuring creative capital stacks for acquisitions, refinances, and growth. My teams handle projects from single-tenant retail to large multifamily developments and mixed-use properties throughout western and central New York.
I believe in building businesses that build people, whether that means helping an owner achieve a long awaited exit, or helping a buyer take the next step toward financial independence. Every transaction represents a story of hard work, vision, and transition — and my job is to make sure that story ends well.
If you’re thinking about selling your business, acquiring a company, or planning your next move, I welcome the opportunity to discuss your goals confidentially and explore how AMD Custom Business Brokers can help you achieve them.
