PE + Mid-Market
Leadership that keeps your numbers ready for what’s next
Austin works with small and medium-sized businesses and PE-backed mid-market companies that need greater structure, visibility, and senior financial support. His focus is helping clients get their financial house in order — from clean books and reliable reporting to board-ready financials and numbers that can stand up to transaction scrutiny.
His experience spans fractional CFO and controller leadership, Quality of Earnings, technical accounting, and board reporting. That range allows him to work across both the ongoing needs of the finance function and the moments when the stakes increase, whether a company is preparing for a transaction, responding to sponsor expectations, or simply building a more disciplined approach to financial management.
Austin’s approach combines technical accounting expertise with practical execution. He helps finance teams understand what needs to improve, put the right reporting and processes in place, and produce financial information that owners, management teams, sponsors, and boards can use with confidence.

PE-backed businesses need financial information beyond closing the books. Sponsors and boards want the reporting on time, the numbers right, performance they can actually see – and a finance function that will hold up through the next transaction.
That is what Austin builds. Fractional CFO and controller leadership, board reporting, technical accounting, and transaction support – so your team walks into every board meeting and every diligence request with numbers that stand up.
