Helping business owners and entrepreneurs achieve financial success
Hi, I’m Richard Paik
15+ year corporate finance professional and Founder of Express Lane Finance
Finance MBA and Certified Management Accountant (CMA)
Advised C-suite executives and led Finance teams at:
- VC-backed startups
- PE-backed mid-size companies
- Global public Fortune 500 companies
I come highly recommended by C-suite executives, and I’m here to help you be successful and avoid becoming blind-sided by the increasing financial management demands that come with your growing business.
Throughout my corporate finance career I have focused on two objectives:
1. Outstanding customer service
2. Driving value creation
Also, as a former small business entrepreneur, I built a branded retail ready-to-assemble (like IKEA) furniture chain to over $3.3M revenue within 2 years through strategic financial management, brand building, team development, and attentive customer service.
