Recently joined Florian Darroman's podcast and had a blast. 

We talked about my entrepreneurial journey and building acquire.com.

I also broke down exactly what a $10M startup looks like, why distribution beats product every time, and what I'd build if I started over in 2026.

Ovi Shekh sold his AI startup on acquire.com after talking to 50+ buyers in two months. And he was still a student.

Wisdom Make AI started as a simple tool to help a professor with literature reviews. Just scratching his own itch. It picked up traction fast. 

Around 1,900 users through his university network and then more institutions started using it.

At the same time he was working on another startup and planning to move to Australia for post-grad. Life was pulling him in different directions.

So he asked himself a hard question. 

Am I the right person to scale this?

The product had potential. But scaling it properly needed focus he couldnt give. So he decided to sell. Not because it was failing or burned out.

Just timing.

He listed on acquire.com, spoke with over 50 buyers, and chose the one who believed in the original vision. Not just the highest price.

Thats how you do it. Build something useful. Get real users. 

And when it makes sense, sell it on your terms.

I founded Sierra Pacific Partners to serve founders navigating critical inflection points. Our focus is M&A and capital advisory for companies in healthcare, technology-enabled services, and other industries where innovation and scale meet new avenues for value creation.

We partner with entrepreneurs and management teams to design and execute transactions that align with their goals, whether pursuing a sale, raising growth capital, or evaluating strategic partnerships. I draw on a background in dealmaking and corporate law to deliver both disciplined execution and practical perspective for founders navigating critical transactions.

Our work spans healthcare innovation and services, tech-enabled business models, and business and industrial services, along with other founder-led sectors where growth and transition opportunities emerge. What remains constant is a founder-first philosophy: Guiding entrepreneurs to create clarity, attract the right partners, and achieve outcomes that preserve vision while building lasting value.

Based in Reno, Nevada, I advise founders nationwide, working closely with owners as they navigate exits and strategic decisions.
