Born and bred in Wisconsin and currently living outside New York City in Westchester County. I have a Masters degree in Fine Arts from the Chicago Art Institute and a Bachelors Degree from the University of Wisconsin at Madison. I have spent almost 20 years in the movie marketing business, working in the trenches cutting trailers and television spots for scores of campaigns. Five years ago I set up my own company here in New York that continues to grow each year. My investment experience is limited to real estate and basic stocks and mutual funds. I'm looking for promising new enterprises to invest in. I'm anticipating little involvement unless the industry is in or near to my own. I could probably be of use if that's the case. Otherwise I'd just leave it to the experts in other fields.

Secured Lending Hedge Fund that looks for the following in transactions: Preservation of capital and downside protection is the overriding theme - Collateral’s value is not correlated to successful and timely repayment of the loan. - Collateral’s value is not based on the successful execution of a business plan. - We look at non-conventional assets such as mining and energy assets, receivables, purchase orders, securities and more. - Deal size between $5-40mm. - Maximum note duration 36 months - We look for yield on the note of mid-high teens’, sometimes we ask for an additional equity kicker - We fund domestic transactions within 4-5 weeks - Our funds are in house so no need to raise the money from outsiders - We typically keep the loans until repayment so the borrower will be dealing with the same managers throughout the entire process - We typically fund entire deals and prefer not to syndicate - We do not want to be involved in the day to day operations of the business
