Advisor & consultant specializing in business sales, brokerage, and valuations
Welcome to my personal website. I work for Alaris Acquisitions, helping business owners through the valuation, financial recast, and exit process. Helping sellers transition out of their businesses and realize the value of their life's work is both my passion and privilege — it's incredibly rewarding work.
I look forward to connecting with you.
Three services. One trusted advisor.
Most brokers specialize in one thing. John handles business sales, M&A advisory, and commercial real estate — so you never need two advisors at the table.

Institutional-grade advisory for middle-market transactions. Deal structuring, PE buyer identification, LOI negotiation, and due diligence management.
Explore M&A Services →Commercial Real Estate
Licensed CRE advisory for property owners. Specialist in combined business-and-property transactions — one process, one advisor, one closing.

The experience behind every deal

After positions including VP at Bank of America Merrill Lynch and Director of Treasury for a $400M organization, John understands deals from both sides of the table — as advisor, buyer, and financial steward.

What business owners say
John made the entire process feel manageable. He understood our industry, found the right buyer, and negotiated terms that exceeded what I thought was possible.
John told me my business wasn't ready and helped me spend 12 months improving it. When we went to market, we sold in 4 months at 30% above the original estimate.
