Operator-Buyer · Washington DC Metro

Built to run,
not to flip.

I am looking to acquire and personally operate one established business in the Washington DC / Northern Virginia / Maryland corridor. If you have spent decades building something, I want to be the person who carries it forward.

Founder · Succession Group LLC

Background
Thirty years of building things that work — in manufacturing, engineering, and defense.
My career has been defined by operations — running teams, building systems, and solving hard problems in demanding environments. I have held senior leadership roles at Beretta Firearms, SpaceX, Shift5, and Rebellion Defense. I understand how businesses work from the inside, not the spreadsheet.

I am based in Bethesda, Maryland and am not looking to relocate. I am looking to acquire one business in the DMV area and commit fully to running it well for the long term.
Beretta Firearms
Manufacturing Leadership
Production operations, quality systems, and precision manufacturing in a highly regulated environment.
SpaceX
Engineering & Operations
High-performance engineering culture. Speed, vertical integration, and operational discipline at scale.
Shift5
Defense Technology
Operational technology security for defense and transportation. Government and IC customer relationships.
Rebellion Defense
Defense Technology
AI-powered defense software serving the intelligence community and Department of Defense.
What I am looking for
01
An established business
Ten or more years in operation with a real customer base, proven revenue, and a reputation worth protecting. Not a startup, not a turnaround in crisis.
02
A founder ready for what's next
An owner who has built something meaningful and is thinking about retirement, succession, or simply a new chapter — and wants to know the business will be in good hands.
03
A service or technical business
HVAC, mechanical services, security systems, technical services, calibration, fire protection, or adjacent fields. Service businesses with recurring relationships and skilled teams.
What I offer

Not a fund.
Not a flipper.
An operator.

I am buying one business to run it — not to package and resell it three years later. If you have spent your career building something, it deserves an owner who will show up every day and take care of it.

  • I will operate the business personally — not hand it to a manager while I sit elsewhere.
  • I will honor the culture, the team, and the customer relationships you have built.
  • I am pre-qualified for SBA financing and can move quickly once we are aligned.
  • I will be transparent throughout the process — no games, no wasted time.
  • I am open to a transition period that works for you, not just the standard thirty days.
  • Bethesda-based — I am a neighbor, not an out-of-town buyer who will run things remotely.
