"I enjoyed working with Shane and Francisco and their team through this sale process," Bob commented. "I will be referring them to people who are considering Buy-side representation. I recall the initial cold call I received from Francisco and the conversation I had with him about my company and the industries we serviced. He was excited about the opportunity to discuss my company with potential Buy-side clients and they found a match!"

Sam Scharich, Calder's Buy-Side Managing Director, remarked, "Michael is a tremendous fit to lead ARK Engineering & Technical Services and ARK Field Services, a specialized firm focused on corrosion mitigation, cathodic protection, and engineering services. We are excited to see Michael build on ARK's strong reputation and continue serving clients across the United States and Internationally."
