Think Like an Owner

Announcing Airframe: Acquiring Aviation Services Companies


Listen Later

I formed Airframe Group to acquire and build a transformative company in aviation services that is loyal to customers, moves fast, and pursues an ambitious vision for the long-term. I have a life-long passion for aviation and want to my next life chapter creating organizations that give the aviation community their absolute best.

My ideal partner is an owner ready for their next chapter of life and wants to transition the company to a new owner who will lead their employees, customers, and vendors toward a bright future. Other characteristics I’m looking for include the company being over $10 million in revenue, growing profitably, and providing a meaningful and important service in aviation.

I’m backed by exceptional investors and active CEOs, all with deep experience building high-performing companies that provide talented employees and customers a long-term home.

I’m an entrepreneur at heart, having founded a media business covering how ambitious CEOs grow great companies through a podcast called Think Like an Owner and a retired print publication. Through the podcast, I’ve met over 250 CEOs like Craig Fuller (CEO of Flying Magazine), and Joel Peterson (former Chairman of JetBlue), among many others. I was chief of staff at HousingWire, a news organization for the housing and construction markets, which we transformed into an information services company through key data acquisition and integration.

I’ve seen and studied how transformative companies are built, and I’m ready to lead and grow one myself in aviation.

If you’re contemplating the next chapter after leading your company, please reach out – I’d love to hear from you. ([email protected])
