Leadership
Braes Bayou is a Houston-based, family-owned investment firm. We acquire and grow private businesses, using our own capital alongside investor partners.
Mike Cox is a Houston native, exited searcher, and founder of Braes Bayou. He led the acquisitions of a 13-location tax services business and a home services business that serves 10,000 Houston-area homes annually. His approach to acquisition entrepreneurship pairs two perspectives: the deal and growth discipline he developed advising investors and management teams at Bain & Company, and a ground-level understanding of how revenue is won, from roles in B2B sales and sales operations. He holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a BA from Morehouse College.
