Jayme has been instrumental in assisting client engagement teams with complex M&A transactions, contributing significantly to the successful outcomes of these deals. A few notable projects include:

In his downtime, Jayme is an avid mountain biker, often exploring the Alpine trails of Austria. He also has a deep appreciation for classical music, attending opera performances in Vienna, the city often referred to as the ‘City of Music.’

In light of Jayme’s working relationship with Nick Pournader and Nadim Saaleh at P&C Global, he states: “Working with Nick and Nadim is like having a chess grandmaster and a rockstar conductor in your corner – one’s planning three moves ahead, while the other keeps everything in perfect rhythm. At the end of the day, you’re not sure if you’re at a chess tournament or a symphony concert, but somehow, everything harmonizes perfectly.”

His expert knowledge, dedication, and humor make him an invaluable asset to the P&C Global team.
