"Capital organized around shared prosperity is more resilient than capital organized around extraction."
Founding thesis · The SAVI Group, est. 2002

It began as a principle for building a firm. It became a way of building a life. The same conviction runs through the funds he structures, the books he writes, and the mercy flights he pilots: that what is built to be shared outlasts what is built to be extracted. Three disciplines, one architecture.

The Work

Three worlds,
one hand.

01 · Capital

The Architect

Through The SAVI Group, a private-equity firm serving the Americas since 2002, he designed the SAVI Capital Model, four binding tenets that write shared prosperity, transparency, and stewardship into the fund documents themselves, not the brochure.

Beyond the Titles

A life in motion.

Sailing on deck
At the controls over the Florida coast
Snowboarding a summit
A Mediterranean village lane
At the marina at golden hour
Sailing the cliffs of Zakynthos
Aboard, sailing the Aegean
On the Inca Trail near Machu Picchu
On a bridge over the Seine, Paris
Beside the aircraft on the ramp
In the Andes at dusk
Over the Tuscan hills

Let's build something that lasts.
