Any organization would be lucky to have Will Gant. I directly managed Will for over a year at The Mergermarket Group where he quickly became a crucial member of the team. I was impressed by his work ethic, force of intellect and energy. He brings an unparalleled level of rigor to his work and consistently finds creative ways to improve processes.
