Skip Braun and Michael Portegello to help
expand firm growth in the New York market
CrossCountry Consulting, a leading business advisory firm, today
announced the appointment of two New York-based members to its
Advisory Council: Skip Braun, a former Senior Advisory Partner at
Grant Thornton; and Michael Portegello, a former Senior Assurance
Partner and Growth Markets Leader at Ernst & Young (EY). Braun
and Portegello will play an instrumental role in shaping the firm’s
strategy for its New York practice.
A finance, accounting, audit, and business leader with over four
decades of diversified experience serving public and private
companies, Braun is a seasoned advisor to fast-growing and
groundbreaking companies, helping them to navigate IPOs,
registration statements, and public filings. Portegello has over 30
years of experience in accounting, finance, and capital market
transactions, leading advisory engagements from emerging,
IPO-bound, high growth start-ups to global, multi-billion-dollar
organizations across various sectors.
“We are thrilled to welcome Skip and Michael to our growing
Advisory Council,” said Erik Linn, Co-Founder and Managing Partner
at CrossCountry Consulting. “Their experience, reputation, and
extensive relationships across the market will be invaluable as we
continue to grow our New York practice. We are eager to work with
them as we continue to develop meaningful solutions and address the
current and future needs of our clients.”
“I am honored to join the CrossCountry Advisory Council,” said
Braun. “I look forward to supporting the firm and helping to
continue to grow its presence in the New York market across the
financial services industry.”
“New York has a tradition of producing market-leading companies
and I’m excited to join such a dynamic, innovative firm that is
committed to providing best-in-class advisory services to its
clients,” said Portegello. “I am eager to join CrossCountry’s
Advisory Council during a high-growth period and contribute to the
company’s success within this market.”
