17 years of doing this work personally — not managing people who do it. Senior judgment on every engagement, every time.
Founder — ex-PwC Deals Associate Director
I started Revere Minds because I kept seeing the same gap: small PE firms and IB boutiques that needed serious deal research, but could not justify Big 4 costs or timelines — and their only alternative was generalist research firms with no real sector depth.
I have spent 17 years on exactly this work — evaluating investments, running commercial due diligence, designing inorganic growth strategies, and spending a decade inside a global automotive group doing corporate strategy from the inside. That combination of consulting rigour and industry reality is what I bring to every engagement.
At Revere Minds you work directly with me. No partner who pitches and disappears, no unsupervised analyst team. The judgment, the analysis, and the output are mine — quality is consistent and turnaround is fast.

How I think
I have been in the room when investment decisions were made, when M&A deals closed, when turnaround plans were presented to boards. That experience changes how I interpret data — I know what matters and what is noise.
I know automotive, industrials, EV supply chains, and manufacturing deeply — from both the investor and operator seat. In these sectors, I can tell you things a generalist researcher cannot.
A good due diligence output should make a decision easier, not more complicated. I write for decision-makers. Every deliverable has a clear point of view — not just a summary of everything I found.
