Background
Avery's career has been a deliberate progression from quantitative execution into senior-decision strategy. Three years on the Industrials desk at Goldman Sachs delivered direct exposure to $6B+ in announced transactions, two cross-border deals, and a sponsor-led take-private. The bench is a working knowledge of how operating models, financing structures, and board-level fairness opinions actually fit together under deadline pressure.
At Bain and Company, that quantitative foundation extended into market-entry diligence and customer research for a Fortune 500 industrial evaluating a $400M adjacency. The case work paired modeling rigor with primary research across twelve operating-leader interviews, producing a recommendation the client CFO defended at the board level. Avery is targeting strategy and corporate-development roles where both halves of that toolkit matter.
