  • Working with Eliza was a transformative experience for our firm. She guided us in developing a focused strategic plan that aligned with our long-term vision.
    Craig Joncas CEO Penobscot Financial Advisors, Portland, Maine
  • We hired Eliza and her team to help us think through an M&A strategy as our firm had not done any transactions at that point in time. Since that engagement, we have done over three dozen transactions and have grown our enterprise value 20x. Her wisdom and insight moved us in the right direction.
