Chris has over 30 years of experience valuing businesses of all shapes and sizes, from large enterprises to small firms and everything in between.
Today, he helps small and lower-middle-market business owners successfully navigate transitions, maximize their company’s value, and achieve their personal and financial goals.
30+ Years of Experience in Finance, Business Valuation, and Corporate Advisory Roles

Chris’s financial expertise and ability to untangle complex financial situations, combined with his ability to identify and resolve financial challenges that many business owners find overwhelming, were some of the main reasons we were thrilled for him to join DBG.
