Finance advisory for when the stakes are too high for ordinary advice
Advisors who thrive where capital, strategy, and execution collide.
Our team is led by former operators, investors, and advisors who’ve been in your seat.
OUR STORY
Kimblewick was built by operators who understand the gap between vision and execution. We've navigated complex transactions and lived through the critical moments that make or break high-growth companies.
Our team delivers the finance leadership and execution capabilities that founders and investors need—especially during fundraising, M&A, and growth inflection points. We're operators, not consultants, built to be the embedded finance partner we always wanted on our team.
