Brian joined Bain in 2005 in the New York office, where he spent more than six years before becoming one of the founding members of the Washington, DC, office.

During his time at Bain, Brian has advised investment funds on over 300 potential acquisitions in industries including retail, restaurants, hotels, consumer products, industrials and manufacturing, technology, financial services, and media and entertainment. These deals spanned traditional LBO, distressed debt and corporate M&A.

Additionally, he has led a number of transformational projects for private equity portfolio companies, addressing topics including corporate portfolio strategy, brand strategy, marketing and advertising (traditional and digital), value proposition development and pricing, direct-to-consumer strategy, loyalty programs and key account planning. These projects have been in a range of industries, but focused in hospitality, retail and consumer durable goods.
