How Jarod is building a better working world

“Through my work with clients, I’ve helped drive turnarounds, restructure distressed entities and supplier networks, and grow through domestic and foreign acquisitions. But whatever the activity, the goal is to preserve or create value in a dramatically changing world — and position companies for their next chapters. I’m proud to help them develop those next steps at the speed that today’s environment demands.”
