Big company expertise. Small company agility. Real world execution.

Seasoned operators with decades of leadership experience, working inside your business on revenue, operations, technology, finance, and legal, at a price a growing company can use.

After more than two decades working with startups, Fortune 100 companies, and complex organizations across multiple industries, I've seen firsthand how difficult it can be to find the right expertise to solve a business challenge, and how expensive traditional consulting can become.

I also witnessed something else: an incredible amount of experienced, talented professionals being displaced by restructuring, cost pressures and job elimination. I saw an opportunity to bring that expertise together and create something different.

That's why I founded MGA Consulting.

MGA is designed to be a practical, affordable alternative to traditional consulting, connecting businesses with seasoned professionals who understand not just strategy, but how to actually get things done.

We're built for small businesses, growing companies, and complex organizations that need experienced guidance to solve challenges, improve performance, accelerate growth, navigate change, or simply get access to expertise they may not have internally.

Our approach is straightforward: listen first, understand the business, identify the real problem, and bring the right expertise to the table.

Rather than forcing every challenge into a predefined consulting model, MGA brings together specialized capabilities across six key solution categories, providing clients with access to the expertise they need, when they need it, at a cost that makes sense.

Our goal isn't to be another outside consultant. It's to become a trusted advisor and long-term partner invested in your success.

That philosophy is captured in our promise:

One Source. Every Solution. For Less.

"We don't need a full-time hire. We need an expert."
