About

Louis was raised in Northern California, where he immersed himself in sports, excelling in both tennis and golf. He quickly realized that his success came from a combination of passion, discipline, and teamwork. This foundation would be added to in his late 20’s when he saw his passion move from sports to personal growth. He discovered that in order to be a successful husband, father, and businessman, it required more conscious interpersonal skills. This commitment to understanding more of himself and others has given him the gift of what it takes to live a life of enduring personal success.

As a Senior Director, Louis meets with business owners to understand what their current growth and exit strategies are, and then to determine how Benchmark International can best assist them in reaching those goals. As a former business owner himself, he knows first-hand how valuable outside professional input can be, especially in areas as critical as these. He has a talent for processing complex information and then synthesizing it into clear and concise strategies. Louis finds success when he sees exactly how Benchmark International can assist and add value to a business owner’s vision and plans. He is continually inspired by the professionalism and talent of his Benchmark International colleagues.

Education

University of California at Los Angeles - BA, Economics

Experience

After graduating college, Louis spent a decade working with a regional flooring firm before founding, managing, and eventually selling his own company in the same industry. Subsequently, he was a partner in an executive coaching firm specializing in assessing and aligning owners’ visions, strategies, and underlying psychology. He now adds his years of experience at Benchmark International to his desire to help others achieve their business and personal goals.

Passion

Louis is passionate about seeing owners achieve their visions. Their businesses often represent years and years of hard work and creativity. He feels they deserve every penny they can receive from the sale of their businesses and is honored to be a part of helping them to achieve that. There is nothing as formidable as a partnership between an experienced business owner, and an equally experienced M&A advisor, coming together to work as one. The ability to play a role in helping entrepreneurs realize the value of their creation is a privilege beyond measure.
