Operators First

Lee leads strategy and PE advisory. 25 years across big tech, marketplaces, and PE-backed portfolios, including AEA Investors, Alibaba, Facebook, and Expedia.

Danny is the first conversation. He works with CEOs, investors, and operators to figure out whether Claymore is the right fit for the problem in front of them.

Kristen makes sure the work actually gets done — running the cadence, holding the accountability, and keeping every engagement on track.

Maxwell assesses C-suite leaders for PE sponsors and their boards. He answers whether the management team can run the plan the deal was underwritten on, and what it takes to get them there.

Brian leads the work of finding where growth is breaking down — the analysis, the patterns, the diagnosis behind every recommendation Claymore makes.

Rachel has spent her career inside the businesses, not advising them from outside. Operations at Apple, then executive roles scaling consumer brands through hypergrowth.

Kingsley leads growth operations. 20 years running enterprise P&Ls across blue-chip agencies and PE-backed businesses, including Wpromote, Digitas, Starcom, and Ogilvy.
