Core Focus Areas
Technology in M&A
I focus on technology aspects of M&A from both sides of the transaction, with particular experience from the acquirer's perspective. Effective technical diligence and integration planning are critical to realizing deal value.
Operations & Infrastructure
I focus on building resilient, efficient technology operations that scale reliably. Strong operational foundations help organizations reduce risk, improve security, and deliver consistent performance.
M&A Technical Insights
Acquisition Readiness
Companies with comprehensive documentation, well-designed architecture, and clean code can navigate acquisitions more smoothly. Proper IP management and license compliance are also essential value protectors.
Integration Pitfalls
Technical issues like undisclosed debt, API incompatibilities, and security misalignments often create the biggest M&A obstacles. Knowledge transfer failures and incomplete documentation frequently extend timelines.
