My favorite quote comes from Vince Lombardi “individual commitment to a group effort—that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.” In business and in life, I passionately believe the difference between success and failure is teamwork. Private equity affords us the unique opportunity to partner with a variety of companies and management teams. Working with our partner businesses to achieve shared strategic goals and visions is rewarding and fun. I have been fortunate to be part of many great teams and am most proud of my colleagues at Provariant and our commitment to transparency and integrity.
