For most business owners, the most valuable thing they own is something they can't easily put a number on. When the moment comes to value it, license it, or sell it, years of work, risk and reputation are on the line. It deserves an advisor who understands what that means.
Sherwood. The forest. The arrow. The conviction that where you stand matters as much as where you aim.
We stand with business owners — not the institutions, not the deal, not what is convenient. We take careful aim. Because for most owners, this is one shot. We make sure it counts.
I've spent my career fighting for the people who build things. Thirty years of valuations, IP, licensing and M&A across Australia, Europe and South America, built alongside running businesses of my own. That combination is the foundation of Sherwood: not just knowing how a deal is structured, but knowing what it costs when the advice you are receiving serves the advisor rather than you.
I also completed MIT's programme in the Science and Business of Biotechnology — not because I needed another credential, but because as deal work increasingly touched deep tech, biotech, and AI, I wanted to understand those businesses and their founders at the same level I understand any other.
What drives all of it is the same thing: understanding what someone has spent years building, and making sure that when the moment comes, everything I have goes toward getting them the outcome they deserve.
