While at Macquarie Capital, Jim invested across the capital stack with deals in large software LBOs, Preferred Equity, Growth Equity, and SPACs.

At Console Group, Jim was first an investor when Macquarie Capital took the business private off the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX). Post investment, Jim stepped into a strategic role to support the CEO with implementing the business plan behind the investment thesis. While there, Jim re-architected the board reporting procedures, stepped in as an interim CFO to rebuild the annual budget, stood up off-shore development resources, and sold non-core assets to generate cash, among other things.

At Ampla, Jim saw first hand what it was like to found a startup and grow it from a 1 bedroom apartment to $50m in revenue, 120 employees, $75m of venture capital funding, $500m+ of debt capital, and finally, an exit to a strategic. During this time, Ampla won numerous awards; including, #157 on the 2023 Inc 5000 List, 2023 Inc Power Partner Awards, and Built In NY -- Best Places to Work.

Additionally, given Ampla was a lender and financial platform to consumer brands doing $10-$200m in revenue, Jim supported hundreds of founders through the highs and lows of building their own businesses.
