Jeff “The Shredneck” Lavin

| Former Pro Athlete | High-Performance Life & Business Strategist | Private Equity Specialist

As a multifaceted leader who thrives in both personal adventure and professional achievement, I channel my passion for snowboarding, surfing, and pushing boundaries into every business venture. Whether through my best-selling book “Get Awesome Above and Beyond”, my work as a renowned inspirational speaker, or my strategic business acumen, my mission is clear: to empower ambitious leaders to pursue their passions and unlock their full potential.

Scaling Without Compromise

At the core of my work is helping ambitious business operators scale and grow—without sacrificing control. As a former pro athlete, I bring the same principles of discipline, resilience, and drive to the world of business. In my roles as Senior Partner at Pacific Capital Partners, General Partner at Legacy Capital Ventures, and Head of Private Equity at Super Founders Global Advisory Council, I collaborate closely with companies to ensure they grow efficiently and sustainably.

Scaling while retaining ownership can feel overwhelming for many business owners. That’s where I come in. I focus on securing institutional-grade capital raises starting at $100M, ensuring that businesses can grow without diluting equity. My goal is to help businesses access the capital they need while retaining 100% ownership, positioning them for exponential growth—without compromise.

Building Securities & Structuring Investments

My expertise lies in building structured securities that create long-term stability for businesses. With my team handling the creation of Private Placement Memorandums (PPMs), we develop investment vehicles that attract institutional capital while maintaining company autonomy. Each PPM is tailored to meet the specific financial needs of the business, focusing on large-scale capital raises while ensuring equity retention.

Additionally, we structure investments that balance both growth potential and security. Through Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) and other complex capital structures, we ensure that businesses remain flexible and protected as they scale. My team and I work closely with companies to identify the most effective capital stack, optimizing for both risk management and aggressive growth strategies.

End-to-End Execution and Secondary Markets

While my team manages the drafting of securities and executing placements, I oversee the entire capital-raising process, ensuring each step aligns with the company’s strategic vision. I provide hands-on guidance to help business operators navigate institutional capital, minimizing risks that could lead to equity dilution.

Building secondary markets is also a critical aspect of our work. My team focuses on securing the initial capital businesses need to scale, while also ensuring access to liquidity in the long term. By developing robust secondary markets, we provide companies the ability to grow, expand their market presence, and create sustained value.

Visionary Leadership & Proven Methodologies

Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of serving on multiple Boards of Directors and Advisors, where I help visionary leaders navigate the financial landscapes of large-scale growth. My approach combines strategic insight, innovation, and discipline, helping companies expand into new markets while maintaining full control of their growth.

I believe in taking a holistic approach to business growth—integrating high-level financial strategies with hands-on operational insights. My goal is to empower leaders to make informed decisions aligned with their long-term vision, ensuring they capitalize on every growth opportunity while remaining true to their goals.

Advising Visionary Operators

I work with a diverse range of clients, from established business operators seeking to scale to visionary entrepreneurs pursuing new growth opportunities. My role is to guide them through the complexities of capital raising, ensuring they have the tools and strategies needed for sustainable growth. Whether it’s navigating regulatory challenges, structuring complex deals, or optimizing the capital stack, my team and I bring a wealth of experience to every client relationship.

My ultimate goal is to help business leaders break free from the limitations that often accompany large-scale growth. We build capital structures that provide both security and flexibility, allowing companies to scale efficiently while retaining full control.

Looking Ahead: Scaling the Next Frontier

As I continue to expand my portfolio and work with new clients, my focus remains clear: helping businesses unlock their full potential without sacrificing ownership. Every business has the potential to scale beyond its current limits, and with the right capital structures in place, that potential can be realized.

I’m always on the lookout for ambitious leaders ready to take their businesses to the next level. Whether you’re looking to secure capital, scale sustainably, or expand your market presence, my team and I are here to provide the strategies and solutions you need to unlock your business’s full potential. Together, we’ll build a future rooted in growth, security, and retained ownership.
