FOUNDER
Geoff is a former commercial real estate broker, whose passion for building businesses was ignited when he observed his wife start an e-commerce brand, Alice + Ames. This entrepreneurial spark led him to quickly swap out LOI’s and site tours for purchase order’s and forecasting spreadsheets, and the rest was history.
Over the past decade, Geoff has practiced operating, scaling, and ultimately selling multiple successful e-commerce brands. From this experience, Geoff personally understands the challenges and emotional investment that come with being a founder and finding the right buyer for your company.
If an email isn’t responded to within the hour, Geoff is likely on the pickleball court, at the local mountain bike trails or somewhere outside with his family. He currently resides in Arizona with his wife and four daughters.
