About

Most waste consultants talk about your bill. I talk about your NOI. I bring 12 years of professional experience across waste operations, financial advisory, and corporate operations — including managing contracts across 1,400+ properties nationwide in multifamily, senior living, retail, hospitality, industrial, and self-storage. $13M+ in documented client savings. But here's what most people in this industry don't see: Waste is not an operations problem. It is a financial performance problem. A $1,000/month waste reduction at a 5.5 cap rate adds $218,000 to your property's appraised value. That same reduction before a refinance puts $112,000+ more in loan proceeds at 65% LTV. That same reduction — applied 18 months before a sale — adds $392,000 to your exit price. Your waste broker has never shown you that math. I show it on every single call. That perspective comes from a career that spans more than waste. At HSBC I served as a Senior Financial Guidance Advisor — managing UK customer portfolios, loan structures, and debt management. Before that I was part of Amazon's Prime Video launch team in India and the UK Kindle team — where I learned how world-class operations and customer obsession actually work at scale. I understand financial products. I understand what lenders look for. I understand how to launch and scale something from zero. And I understand waste operations at a level most financial advisors never see. That combination — financial advisory depth, corporate operational experience, and waste industry expertise — is what I bring to property owners, syndicators, and real estate investors across the US. Currently with EB Waste — serving multifamily, senior living, retail, commercial, hospitality, and self-storage portfolios nationwide. If you are acquiring, refinancing, preparing to sell, or simply overpaying right now — let's talk. 📧 "DM me AUDIT or email [email protected] for a free waste analysis. Results in 48 hours."
