With a career primarily focused on buying and selling companies, Bronson has a proven track record of facilitating successful transactions across various industries. His unique perspective, having been in both the seller's and buyer's shoes at the closing table, equips him with the knowledge and experience to craft the right strategy. Bronson's true passion lies in helping other business owners achieve their dream exits, a commitment that instills trust and reliability in NorthStar's mission.

Furtick has spent the past 18 years in the M&A trenches, honing his expertise in business transactions to become one of the most decorated and trusted advisors in the DFW Metroplex. His blend of education, creativity, and experience, coupled with meticulous attention to detail, has aided him in evaluating more than 1,000 businesses and successfully closing more than 100 transactions. As a founding partner of NorthStar, Jeremy plans to leverage those skills to help create the premier M&A organization in Texas with Bronson and Gorbutt.

"This has been a long time coming," Furtick said. "I've seen and experienced so much, both good and bad, over the past two decades in this industry and have always had ideas of how to build that 'better mousetrap.' With Tom, John, and I coming together to create NorthStar, you're going to see an entirely new standard in business transaction representation, management, and execution. A process that begins and ends with a commitment to understanding a business owner's goals and designing a strategy to reach those goals - not just to listing and closing a deal."
