I read once from Albert Einstein, “Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.” Ever since this moment, it has been my mission.

My passion of finance didn’t come until after college. In fact, my entire route was very untraditional. After spending time as a high school football coach and a substitute teacher, I started a small training business. The gym I rented change my entire life. At this gym, I had the opportunity of meeting and training some of the most successful people I had ever met in the field of finance. This included private equity managers, hedge fund managers and so on.

These relationships berthed one of my first investment companies, Elite Capital Partners which was a small cap private equity firm that invested specifically into value add multifamily real estate.

Taking the lessons i’ve learned, I now run an investment company called Tenth Street Group where we buy, build and invest in businesses across multiple industries.

At the end of the day, I hope to be of value to you.
