The Dogs of Peakview
Our Advisory Board
With 20+ years of cumulative experience, the pets of Peakview play an integral role in ensuring the firm’s investment banking team maintains a healthy work-life balance and sense of humor. Be sure to take our quiz below and see if you can guess which of us belong to which dog.
Odie
Odie, a 6-year old Bichon Frise, brings several years of experience to his role as Chief Relaxation Officer. He has an uncanny ability to sense when someone has lay prone on a couch, and will optimize their nap in close snuggling proximity. Odie has an advanced degree in Table Scrap Begging, and has perfected the “I’m starving” expression, even immediately after cleaning his bowl. In his free time, Odie enjoys long sniff-filled walks, pilfering stuffed animals from the kids’ rooms, and increasing his napping endurance. He may not have any Westminster awards, but Odie’s family thinks he is “best in show”!
Coconut
Coconut, a 1.5-year old Goldendoodle, is the Director of Accounts Retrievable. She lives by the motto “Work Hard, Play Hard, Rest Hard” and can follow up an intense training session with a long game of fetch, followed by a nap on just about any surface. Coconut has an impressive energy level, as shown by her daily “zoomies” that take place when you least expect them. Though friendly and lovable once she gets to know you, Coconut takes pride in showing off skills necessary for her dream job of Chief Security Officer.
Ruxin
Ruxin, Managing Director of Friendships, is responsible for networking, relationship building and making sure everyone is happy. With over 5 years of experience, Ruxin is an expert at meeting people and animals of all shapes, sizes and temperaments and is known to get even the grumpiest of people to smile or the barkiest of terriers to wag their tails. Ruxin has a sixth sense for when someone is sad and is quick to lend a snuggle or sloppy kiss. He is also skilled at identifying strangers, mail carriers and vacuum cleaners. He is proud of his ability to recognize pending danger and takes his response very seriously with a booming bark. When he’s not making friends, keeping watch for suspicious activity or doing his daily rounds of the neighborhood, Ruxin enjoys a good nap and hanging with his two favorite toddlers.
Sammy
Sammy is 3½ years old and a 7-pound undersized Havanese boy, who may or may not be a purebreed (we may have been tricked!). He is Director of Social Affairs and Public Relations and has perfected an exuberant full-body wiggle, and direct eye contact to charm clients and friends. His amicable demeanor wins over everyone, especially the ladies, on his walks in the Peakview neighborhood of Cherry Creek. Sammy holds advanced degrees in Friendliness and Charm, and is known for setting people at ease. He has a bit of a “Napoleon Complex”, but absolutely loves his time with dogs of any shape and size. When not guarding the front door from his favorite sofa, you can find him frolicking in the backyard with his canine friends Paco, Oliver, Wally, Bear and Smokey.
Tootsie
Tootsie, Esq., brings 12 years of experience to her role as Chief Distraction Officer (“CDO”). She can be found peering over a laptop screen to check for typos, stealing dress socks, and insisting on her much-needed union breaks. Tootsie ensures the Peakview Partners practice work-life balance by demanding that someone take her on walks every two hours between meetings and conference calls, and requiring immediate lap-sitting snuggles once a new Zoom meeting has begun. As CDO, some may view her computer work as disruptive, but she is actually a skilled IT specialist knowing that licking your hand will effectively fix all computer issues (or at least make you feel better). Upon closing all complex M&A deals, Tootsie coordinates champagne and celebratory dog bones for all.
Can you guess who belongs to whom?
From the initial meeting, Peakview Partners was highly organized and professional. Their team was extremely responsive to our timeline and managed the interested companies to a tight timeline. We had numerous compliments on the informative and well-written Information Memorandum. Peakview was instrumental in providing financial guidance during the negotiations. The bottom line is that we achieved a significantly higher value than anticipated. I will absolutely recommend Peakview to anyone needing sell-side transactional support.
Tom Murphy, Founder & CEO, LT Environmental
Tim Dailey was integral in the sale of ProCoat Systems. From our initial meeting as we prepared the company for sale, to the Information Memorandum, through the Due Diligence process and on through the final close, Tim was amazing – handling any issues that arose, negotiating with multiple potential buyers, and creating a transaction that worked for all parties. We are grateful for his help and guidance and would recommend their services to any owner considering selling their business.
Jim, Randy & Marty Diner, Co-Owners of ProCoat Systems
Warren – Gus, Mike, and I wanted to express our sincere gratitude for all of the work and effort you both put forth to get this deal done. I was impressed that you and your team fought for us until the end and I mean the END. Not once did you take the easy road, nor did you allow us to roll over. Your knowledge of our company was impressive and we were proud to have you represent us during this endeavor. Choosing you is one of the best decisions we have ever made!
Bill Cramer, President of Access Mediquip
Peakview Partners came highly recommended to me and was an invaluable advisor during
every step of the acquisition, including negotiating, structuring and funding the acquisition of CTI. I highly recommend Peakview to any business owners considering acquisitions or selling their companies.
Tom Montgomery, Founder & CEO, Accelerated Services LLC
Peakview’s senior level bankers understood the important work LABS performs for the organ, eye and tissue donation industry and were dedicated to ensuring the transaction process resulted in a great outcome for AlloSource and its stakeholders. Based on our experience, we would use Peakview Partners for any future transactional needs.
Tom Cycyota, President and CEO, AlloSource
Peakview played a critical role in the successful negotiation and provision of advisory services related to our transaction. They have significant subject matter knowledge as well as a respectful but firm negotiating style that fit well with the community orientation of Denver Health and Hospital Authority. I would not hesitate to recommend Peakview Partners for other transactional advisory services.
Peg Burnette, CFO, Denver Health
