Cannabis M&A, commercial acquisitions,
and complex transactions that require
someone who's actually done this before.
Since 2014 I've been operating in California's most regulated markets. Cannabis acquisitions, commercial real estate, business M&A — the transactions that require deep regulatory knowledge, financial literacy, and the operational experience to actually get them across the finish line.
I've worked deals that required CDTFA clearance, DCC ownership transfers, city consent, entitlement, and multi-party negotiation — simultaneously. That's not unusual for this work. That's just Tuesday.
Based in California. Licensed to deal in commercial, business, and residential real estate. Working nationwide on complex acquisitions.
Buy-side and sell-side. LOIs, purchase agreements, due diligence, escrow coordination. From first conversation to close.
License transfers, ownership approvals, CDTFA clearance, DCC compliance. The regulatory layer most brokers don't know exists.
Investment sales, industrial, retail. Site selection, zoning analysis, entitlement, and procurement for complex operators.
Broker opinions of value grounded in real transaction data. Not estimates — analysis built on what deals actually close for.
Capital sourcing for acquisitions. Connected to lenders and private capital sources who understand restricted-market deals.
Most brokers avoid the deals that require real work. I built a practice around them. Since 2014 I've been closing transactions in California's most regulated industries — developing the kind of expertise that only comes from doing the work, not studying it.
I read lease agreements, balance sheets, and income statements. I understand what kills cannabis deals — CDTFA tax liability, DCC ownership approval timelines, local permit gaps, and the difference between a license that looks active and one that actually is.
My background spans real estate brokerage, business operations, and construction management. That combination — regulatory depth, financial literacy, and operational experience — is what I bring to transactions that need more than a standard broker.
