Dan began developing his unique abilities as the youngest owner of medallion taxicabs and fleet maintenance centers in Chicago and New York City. A chance encounter with a private investor prompted Dan to sell his company and transition to Wall Street.
His success as an analyst led him to Lehman Brothers Kuhn Loeb with the distinction of being the only hire without a book of business and ranked in the industry’s top 10% within six months. Thereafter Dan joined a boutique M&A firm where his skills were honed under the tutelage of its principal who was the most successful intermediary in the United States.
Seeking a more operational role, Dan was recruited as director of corporate development for a family office acquiring retail, consumer product, and industrial manufacturing businesses. Working directly with the CEO, Dan was responsible for sourcing and modeling new investments, assisting operating management, and troubleshooting.
Dan began consulting independently post 9/11 and expanded the scope of his work to include management consulting, architecture, construction, MEP, industrial services, etc. Today, he continues to help companies grow, operate, and prosper in an ever more competitive world.
