About me

I’m a co-founder at Longleaf Lending, a Texas-based private lending business we started in 2020. I had been lending as a side-hustle for a couple years before teaming up with Pete Underwood.

We’ve funded over 200 loans so far with deal value over $45 million.

I was previously a Vice President in energy investment banking in Houston. My deal experience covered advisory, high yield, and leveraged loan transactions.

Before banking, I worked at Shell on delivery of deepwater capital projects.

I also served as a Captain in the U.S. Marine Corps which included multiple deployments to Afghanistan and the Middle East.

For school, I received my MBA from Rice University and my undergrad degree in business was from the University of Colorado.
