He built a team of technical program managers and drove several strategic data projects across the organization. Concurrent with his time at Meraki, Josh earned his MBA from The Wharton School as a double major in Business Analytics and Joint Marketing and Operations Management. In 2020, the pandemic enabled remote work and Josh & Kass knew they would go straight to the Beaches of Jax, FL – originally their first Navy duty station and where they got engaged, now a new homebase for them and their four kids. They executed in rapid succession four deals, two syndicated, and bid farewell to their W-2's to fully focus on their business and family. As of 2023, NCV collectively has $60MM under management and their hospitality brand, Nomad Hospitality, has almost 100 listings. Josh loves the Jax communities and every aspect of their businesses, from underwriting deals, working with investors, overseeing renovations, implementing software systems, and of course delivering 5-star experiences. Get in Touch with JoshWebsite: https://www.nomadcapitalventures.com/ Property Management Website: https://www.nomadhospitality.co/Realty Website: https://www.nomadjax.com/ LinkedIn: Josh KristoffTo Connect With UsPlease visit our website www.bonavestcapital.com and click here to leave a rating and written review!
