Jimmy Watson graduated during the 2009 financial crisis, which forced him to move back home to his parents' basement. Luckily he soon landed a job in FP&A at Raytheon, and later moved through roles in consulting and middle market banking before eyeing the independent sponsor model. He joined Clavis Capital Partners as an associate in 2018 and rose to Managing Director over the next 8 years.
