Unlocking Growth in the Consumer Sector

Startup finance consulting, fundraising advisory, and M&A transaction support



Hello! I’m Ryan, an advisor and finance professional dedicated to helping startups manage their finances and growth initiatives. I also provide M&A transaction support and personally invest in early-stage consumer brands. My career began in investment banking, and since founding RMC Ventures, I’ve collaborated with clients across private equity, venture capital, and various CPG startups. I launched RMC after recognizing a significant market need: startups often struggle with cash flow management and fundraising but can’t afford to hire a full-time Head of Finance/CFO.

Growing up in San Francisco, I was immersed in new technologies and health and wellness products. This environment, combined with my experience as a college athlete, ignited my passion for better-for-you CPG, connected fitness, and digital health companies aimed at improving our overall health and well-being. I’ve seen early-stage founders and operators overwhelmed by financial challenges, and my goal is to empower them to build data-driven businesses without compromising customer relationships and brand values.

Outside of work, I enjoy longboarding, coaching and playing tennis, and exploring new restaurants in NYC. I am located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, please feel free to reach out if you'd like to chat CPG, health/fitness, finance, or anything in between! My specific services are listed below.

Kanpai specializes in freeze-dried candies, which offer a unique and slightly healthier alternative to traditional sweets. While Kanpai does contain added sugar, the freeze-drying process eliminates the need for preservatives and artificial dyes (red 40, blue 1, etc.).

Mimikai aims to reduce reliance on unhealthy chemicals by offering biodegradable and non-toxic alternatives to traditional diethyltoluamide (DEET)-based insect repellents. They offer the first product in over 25 years to receive a new federal EPA repellent registration with patents surrounding its exclusive active ingredient.

Below are some of my investments in early-stage businesses that I believe have significant growth potential. Each investment has its unique rationale, but they all share common themes: a strong founding team, exceptional product quality, and a scalable competitive advantage, often through patents, proprietary ingredients, or distribution channels. If you’d like to discuss any of these businesses in more detail, please feel free to reach out!
