Bio
I grew up in a family-run business. Growing it into a seven-location operation wasn’t easy. And, neither was the decision to sell it. Most of my 28-year career has been in small business—I spent 14 years spent building and then selling a Budget Blinds franchise.
I found my passion, however, helping other entrepreneurs sell their businesses. And, now I’m bringing that passion to Murphy Business Sales. Why? My experience selling my own business made me realize there were few companies helping small business owners value and prepare their business for sale, find buyers, and close the deal. Even fewer offer fair valuations and unvarnished advice to ensure your valuable time isn’t wasted chasing false expectations.
On a personal note, I enjoy spending time with my wife Amy, son Riley, and daughter Mara. Hobbies include golfing, reading, fishing, boating, and cooking. Amy and I are huge fans of the Milwaukee Brewers, Milwaukee Bucks, Green Bay Packers, and Wisconsin Badgers. We also love attending and supporting high school athletics. I’m an alum of the University of Wisconsin Whitewater, where I earned a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Office Systems (Information Technology), leading to seven years as an IT consultant for Fortune 1000 companies."
